Industry Reviews
Gr 2-4 This newly illustrated edition of Rain and Hail (Crowell, 1983) is a concise and informative look at the water cycle. Branley provides a fundamental understanding of how water is recycled, how clouds are formed, and why rain and hail occur. A few easy science activities are included. Words that might be unfamiliar to readers are defined in context. The pen-and-ink with watercolor wash paintings clearly interpret the concepts presented on each page. Throughout the book, speech bubbles from a group of children provide further clarification. This beginning reader would be especially useful to elementary teachers, but will also fill a niche for young researchers. Stephani Hutchinson, Pioneer Elementary School, Sunnyside, WA

This is one of a number of Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science books recently reissued with new illustrations. This one complicates matters for librarians with a new title as well. The book previously known as Rain & Hail now has a slightly revised text, though the main change in wording is that many of the lines [now] appear in the characters' speech balloons. . . . Bright and cheerful as well as informative, Hale's line-and-watercolor-wash illustrations give the pages a most appealing look. A good choice for classrooms studying rain, hail, or the water cycle. . . . Ages five to eight.
