Review

Bright and bold illustrations take the forefront yet the text is not to be dismissed. Tap Tap Boom Boom loses nothing in this paperback edition. The illustrations are still large while delicately detailed. Raindrops in all sizes falling from the sky, splashed from cars or being shaken off a dog are the focus in this city community. This reader delighted in the rhyme, sense of companionship and detail of the illustrations. Defiantly a purchase for K-2 classrooms and as a gift to urban families. Libraries should order a hardcover copy. Who knew that a rainstorm could be so much fun?

Overall Book Score: very good
