Product Description
If food dropped like rain from the sky, wouldn't it be marvelous! Or would it? It could, after all, be messy. And you'd have no choice. What if you didn't like what fell? Or what if too much came? Have you ever thought of what it might be like to be squashed flat by a pancake?

 Lousy presentation August 6, 2008
The story is great, but I am returning the item because the book jacket is awful. I ordered a hardcover, and the book itself has no picture or title on the cover, only the book jacket shows the cover. That alone is odd, but this jacket is as thin as a piece of paper! It won't survive one year in my classroom. I've never seen such cheap, lazy packaging in my life. The pages are also thin and tender, they aren't strong glossy pages like most books. As much as I love this story, it's not worth the money because it won't last.
 A timeless children's classic. July 28, 2008
Perfect. A great story well told and beautifully illustrated, in an appropriately sized format. Who doesn't fantasize about food? And how about food on a colossal scale? And as the weather itself? Good, good fun.
Great book! July 22, 2008
Love this book! I remember borrowing this book from the library when I was growing up and I had to share it with my children. My 2 boys really enjoy this book, especially when the food is gigantic. I would highly recommend this book for children of all ages.
All good things must come to an end July 17, 2008
This is one of my favorite children's books. I loved it as a child and now that I have a child of my own, I wanted to share it with her.
What a clever and funny book with great illustrations with subtle details.
This is a must own book for your little ones. It's one book you won't get sick of reading.
A book I read as a child and now my children adore! June 26, 2008

As a young girl I read this book over and over, picturing myself as a citizen of Chew-and-Swallow, a town where it rains tomato soup and hot dogs, pancakes and eggs over easy, orange juice and spaghetti with meatballs.
I loved the detailed illustrations and the humor. And now-I won't say how many years later-as I read it to my children, the enjoy it as much as I ever did.
It's a true gem of a read, one that I will keep long after my children become adults. I'll be able to read it and picture myself as the little girl I was-so in awe of the creativity, the concept itself- and the young mother I was, enjoying it with her children.
