A Drop of Rain

Rating:
Summary: Catchy lyrics and a wonderful story.
Review: This gentle story is full of catchy lyrics, which I found myself reciting to my infant - "Why do you cry, sweetie pie? A warm bottle will pacify."

Babies and toddlers will love the rhymes and bright watercoloured illustrations.

I also enjoyed this work because the family depicted in the illustrations is Asian Amercian, even though the book has nothing to do with Asian American themes. Coming from a mixed race (Asian-Caucasian) family, I appreciate the true-to-life portrayal, and that my child can see his own reflection in such a book.
