It’s not bad, I guess, but I was a bit disappointed. It didn’t live up to what I expect from my Click Clack friends. Students will pick it up because they will recognize the characters. It does use lots of repetition, which is good for beginning readers. The pictures do support the text, to help students with more challenging words, and are silly enough to keep kids going. But I thought the repetition was stilted, and I would have forgiven it that if the story line led to something a bit more clever or fun, like I usually expect from this team. Basically it’s a rainy day, and no one on the farm likes the rain and mud except the cows, but the others keep bringing umbrellas and boots and sweaters to protect the cows, but then the wind blows those things away and in the end everyone is wet and suddenly everybody decides they love the rain after all. Maybe it’s my prejudice as someone who has lived most of my life in the Pacific Northwest, where we get a lot of rain, but I didn’t see anything in the story to change the minds of the folks who don’t like rain to suddenly loving it. It just felt like a convenient way to end it, rather than what the story was leading to.
