This book provides a look at droughts appropriate for the intended audience. As the drought progresses, illustrations show its effects through the eyes of young children. Side bars provide added information. Activities designed to increase understanding are included as well as back matter including ways to save water and a glossary and a "Find Out More" section. A good addition to your collection.
