This is an Amazing Book!

2007-10-29
The Raindrops' Adventure is a truly amazing book! The illustrations are phenomenal; I've never seen such great work, especially in a children's book! I couldn't stop turning the pages; I wanted to see what fantastic piece of art work lay on the next page.
This book is wonderfully written as well, it is simple enough for a child to understand, yet complex enough for an adult to enjoy reading over and over again.
I recommend this book to everyone!

Wonderfully Illustrated! Super Job Kim!

The illustrations and context of the book are written so beautifully. The children will want to know what happens next. You actually learn about the adventure of the raindrop. I especially loved the way Kim illustrates through the 4 seasons. If you don't own this book ... YOU SHOULD!

BUY THIS BOOK - IT'S A VISUAL AND LEARNING FEAST!

Each of Kim Kerr's richly detailed illustrations should be hanging in an art gallery. In addition, her story clearly illustrates through pictures and words the genesis and life cycle of rain. My five year old daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed this bright and educational book. It should be on the book shelf in every school and public library.

Exciting & captivating reading for children !

I am sending copies of this book out to several elementary teachers that I know. This book has wonderful illustrations and captures a childs attention and keeps it thru out the whole book. Books like this are great teaching tools just for that reason alone, not to mention the wonderful characters they learn to love thru out it. I would suggest anyone who has children to purchase a copy.

A Page Turner That Every Child Would Love.

Not only is this a great book to read, but the art work is unmatched. This detail is not always found in childerns books. Its colorfull, and intresting. The raindorp is a charter childern can relate to, he is a fun little guy that makes science fun. I really enjoyed it! Its a fresh and intresting take on evaporation.

Colorful and EXCITING!

THE RAINDROPS' ADVENTURE explains the water cycle in a fun and educational way. The realistic watercolor and airbrush illustrations depict the natural setting where the story takes place. The text is written in verse and unites beautifully with the realistic watercolor and airbrush illustrations, so children can easily understand and comprehend the water cycle. The book is packaged as a fun pack. There are various activity sheets and an autographed bookmark for children to color. The entire contents are all neatly packaged inside a 9x12 ziploc bag.

Excellent; Entertaining and Educational!!!

Kimberly Kerr has found a wonderful way of taking a difficult subject for children to understand, and turning it into a fun-to-read and look at book!! The rhyming verse holds the childrens interest and the illustrations are captivating!!! My seven year old says "It's a neat way to learn about how the rain goes up in the air." I plan on showing the book to my children's teachers as a possible tool in the classroom. I encourage any elementary level school teacher to take a look. Overall, a great book for home and school.

Very easily understood text....AWESOME illustrations!!!!

This book held my 7 year old's attention and was extremely easy to understand. The whole process of a water cycle was very well represented and the artwork is truly amazing. I hope to see more work by this author available through Amazon. Thanks!

Well illustrated and fun way to learn about rain.

The outstanding illustrations in this book is sure to hold the attention of even the youngest children. The author has taken an otherwise dull suject and made it bright and fun for the kids.

This book is an excellent combination of entertainment and education. The story is an educational experience. The illustration is an experience in the arts for the kids. The verse presentation of the story is an experience in poetry.

Bright and fun, but educational what more could you want?

Fantastic illustrations, creative and entertaining for kids. 1999-09-24
