Official synopsis Publisher
This fun, informational picture book expertly pairs poetry and science to explain how a cloud experiences the water cycle. Here’s an innovative story about the water cycle – told by a cloud! The cloud describes the process in lyrical prose, complemented by side commentary from a clever bird who fills in the science facts. First, the cloud soaks up moisture, gathering “steam from a cup of tea” and “vapors from salty seas.” Then, it becomes full and heavy: its “soggy edges bulge.” Finally, it BURSTS, creating a rainstorm, punctuated by thunder and lightning. Until, at last, it’s spent, “frizzled, drizzled, drained,” leaving only a rainbow. A companion to Kaboom! A Volcano Erupts, Kersplash! A Cloud Bursts is a perfect pick for both interactive science lessons and lively read-alouds!
