Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
If frogs made weather it would rain all the time and ponds would stay full to the brim. If polar bears made the weather, winter would never end and the ground would always be covered in snow. In lyrical poems Marion Dane Bauer explains what the weather would be like if ten different animals were in charge. But what would the weather be like if little boys had their say? In this case, we would have it all.
A young child ruminates on the favorite weather of ten different animals. If frogs made weather it would rain all the time and ponds would stay full to the brim. If polar bears made weather, winter would never end and the ground would always be covered with snow. In this cozy picture book for preschoolers, Marion Dane Bauer's lyrical poem and Dorothy Donohue's beautiful cut-paper art encourage children to speculate on what it would be like if animals made weather.
