From School Library Journal:
PreSchool-Grade 4-- If rainy days make good reading days, this title could be near the top of the list for stormy weather. Its 17 short poems convey an appreciation and a mostly humorous attitude toward that inevitable gift of nature that ruins the picnics and the pool parties of life. The heavyweights of children's poetry are represented here: R. L. Stevenson, Aileen Fisher, Rose Fyleman, Dorothy Aldis, Marchette Chute, etc. Accompanying the light and lively verses are soft, perky, pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations. It's a winning combination. The narrow focus of this small volume will not hinder its delight for the families or classrooms who share it during a downpour or a day of sunshine. --Amy Nunley, Toledo-Lucas County Public Library, OH

From Kirkus Reviews:
Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information, Inc.
Seventeen brief poems by such familiar writers as Dorothy Aldis, Rachel Field, and Harry Behn, each presented on a delicate double-spread watercolor depicting young children enjoying the wet weather. The poems occasionally include a glint of humor (``I fell into a river once/ But this is even better''--Marchette Chute); mostly, their forte is simple but deftly evocative words (``How brave a ladybug must be!/ Each drop of rain is big as she./ Can you imagine what you'd do/ if raindrops fell as big as you?''--Aileen Fisher). Kandoian's beautifully understated art is as lyrical as the language. Index. (Poetry/Picture book. 5-8) -- Copyright ©1992, Kirkus Associates, LP. All rights reserved.
