Splish! Splash!




Title: Splish! Splash!
Author: Josepha Sherman
Illustrated By: Jeff Yesh
Published By: Picture Window Books


The author has covered major concepts well and in enough depth to get children to want to learn more. The artwork is great and clearly enhances the content of the book. The pictures are not to busy, they are simple straight lines where needed and then you have some pictures with broad lines and with simple, colorful pictures that really enhance the content of the book.

As for the reader  they will be able to investigate rain,  they can learn about the water cycle and the problems that rain can cause. Either there can be too much rain and cause floods or too little rain and cause droughts. I really like this book because it is broken down into sections and goes into detail but not too much information all at once for kindergartners.
