This is a very rhythmic and lyrical book...by Linda L. Oliphant (5 out of 5 stars)
February 13, 2018
Rating 5
This is a very rhythmic and lyrical book that will please readers of all ages, especially the little ones. It the story full of art, poetry, nature and science all combined into a dance about our water cycle. The oil painting illustrations are luscious to the eye and the story itself is poetically pleasant to the ear. This is truly a water dance. It is told in the first person...water, beginning with rain and ending with a rainbow.
"I am one thing.
I am many things.
I am water.
This is my dance through the world"

What an amazing dance through the water cycle. If you teach the water cycle, you need this book. The pictures are beautiful! The poem is spectacular and if you read it with Ravel's Jeux d'eau the juxtaposition is mind blowing!!!!

This was a perfect book to add poetry and beauty to a science unit on land and water for fifth graders. The pictures were gorgeous and the wording took information and made it into poetry. There was also additional scientific information at the end of the book. The book itself was in very good condition even though used. It made a very beautiful and economical addition to the classroom library, and arrived quickly after ordered.
Learn the water cycle in a fun and exciting way.

This book inspired my son to tell a great story with enthusiasm as a young child. He is now 19 and studying elementary education. This is the first book we have purchased for his classroom. I hope it inspires his students as much as it did him.

A big fan of Thomas Locker books, and this book is as lovely as the others. Gorgeous art, good writing. Grows with child; as interesting to young toddlers as well as older children. A pleasure for adults to read, which is a bonus for those of us who read lots of books to little ones.

Thomas Locker has once again given us a feast for our eyes. His illustrations are outstanding and his poetry is charming. In addition, he has included facts about the water cycle to reinforce the lessons he artistically created. This is an excellent classroom resource.
