Raindrops Roll

This beautifully illustrated picture book presents readers with a microscopic view of the beauty created by rainstorms and nature. The stunning, close-up photographs and lyrical, poetic text are accompanied by an addendum which describes the science behind each image, and allows for deeper understanding of water, the water cycle, the importance of water to Earth, weather, and rainfall. This engaging book for K-7 students could be used with scientific experiments, research, and inquiry, to study the poetry of the words and the photography techniques used, or to supplement outdoor education and ADST.
