Bumpa Rumpus and the Rainy Day

by Joanne Reay, Adriano Gon (Illustrator)

Waking up to the plup-plup sounds of a rain-filled gutter and the tik-tik noises of a splattered windowpane, Little Bumpa devises a wonderful idea for livening up a future sunny day and sets out in the middle of a shower.

this was a very cute book. the rhyming in it made it read almost like a song. my son laughed the whole wya through the book.

An excellent story time book with all of the sounds that can be made. The pictures are fun. The story is enough to keep the attention. The rhyming is good and not too distracting or hard to keep up with. The only thing I don't really like is that the boy is walking around the whole book in his shirt and diaper. That there makes the book seem much more juvenile and an older audience might balk at that. But it seems to fun to pass up otherwise.

This book was cute, but this book was disorganized! Loved the plays on words, but I got lost in how "busy" this book was.
