Raindrop Plop: 12/31/08

It's the very end of the year and it's time to party so I'll make this last review short and sweet.

Raindrop, Plop! by Wendy Cheyette Lewison is a counting book that teaches counting one to ten and back again. The plot centers around a girl trying to go out to play but it's starting to rain. She counts raindrops until it rains too hard to play comfortably any longer. So inside she goes for a hot bath and hot cocoa.

The book is beautifully illustrated and fun to read. The rhyming scheme is easy on the tongue and rather soothing to read. It's a popular book with my kids, especially when they are a little under the weather.
