Each spread of the book shows Kipper romping about in some sort of different weather condition (i.e., splashing in puddles for "rain" or sunbathing for "sunshine.") There is no plot and nothing written beyond the one-word description of the weather - "snow," "ice," "hail," etc. The illustrations are cute and well done, especially for some concepts that are a little bit harder (both to draw and to explain to small children), such as fog and wind. Still, this book is very, very basic - even a little too basic for the 2-year-olds in my class. This would be good only for the very youngest learners who still don't know much about weather patterns - or, alternatively, for die-hard Kipper fans. Mick Inkpen’s gently humorous books are sure to be favorites with any young child just learning about the world-and the sturdy card-stock pages are perfect for eager little hands to turn. Kipper, a clever young pup, is up to mischief in these four concept books for toddlers. Learn about colors as he paints a messy purple monster or disappears in a cloud of white flour. Find out about the weather as Kipper basks in the sun and waves to a rainbow. Discover numbers and count how many friends make ten. See what fun opposites can be when Kipper makes short work of a long stick! (amazon) no reviews | add a review
