Colin Cloud's having lots of fun down at Skytown Park today. He's making shapes for all his friends in a guessing game they play. When the Pollutants turn up to misbehave, Ronny Rain splashes them for fun. But they soon warm up and start to dry thanks to Sammy Sun. They don't understand the water cycle and where the puddles go. So, Ronny Rain tries to explain and tells them what he knows.
Make teaching the water cycle fun for little children with this curriculum-aligned picture book from the Weatherbies series. This cast of memorable characters makes it easy to remember key concepts about the world around us and the need to take good care of our planet.
