"Come on, Rain!" Tess pleads to the sky as listless vines and parched plants droop in the endless heat. Then the clouds roll in and the rain pours. And Tess, her friends, and their mothers join in together in a rain dance to celebrate the shower that renews both body and spirit. Full color.
Review:
"Hesse's measured prose is evocative without weighing itself down out of childish perception: the phraseology is freshly apt (gardening Mamma kneels "over the hot rump of a melon") and the understated details of Tessie's neighborhood reconnoiterings ("I cross the crackling-dry path past Miz Glick's window...glancing inside as I hurry by") giving a sense of community. In a stunning and worthy counterpart to Hesse's text, Muth's watercolors bring the oppressive temperatures to life....The art makes the most of perky Tessie's considerable charm, capturing the wiry litheness of so many young girls as she gallops across the neighborhood and cavorts on the street."
Deborah Stevenson, Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, April 1999
