PreSchool-Grade 1?A familiar story line involving thewhimsical world of ever-changing shapes in the sky. Little Clouddrifts away from his wispy friends and entertains himself bychanging into a variety of forms?a lamb, an airplane, a shark, aclown, etc.?before joining the others to form one big cloud thatrains. Charles Shaw's It Looked Like Spilt Milk (HarperCollins,1947) explores a similar theme. While the concept is not unique,the style is definitely Carle's own. His trademark paintedcut-paper collages are eye-catching and appealing. Children willenjoy the simple text and the colorful illustrations.?KathyMitchell, Gadsden Co.
