Raindrop, Plop!

Raindrop, Plop was written by Wedny Cheyette Lewison and illustrated by Pam Paparone. It is children's fictional story book. The book was published in 2004 by Penguin Group. The primary character is a young girl. The theme of the book is to enjoy everything, even when it seems like you can't. The book has not received any awards.

The book is about a young girl who wants to play outside in the rain. She begins to count the raindrops. When it starts raining too much the girl goes back inside and counts objects around her house. The girl is able to have fun outside in the rain and inside her house.
I would use this book in an early elementary classrooms. Kindergarten students would enjoy this book because of the large illustrations and they could easily relate to the things the little girl does. Raindrop, plop would be a good way to teacher students about counting and numbers. They could see how the book counts different objects and then work together to count different items around the classroom.
