The pictures in the book are amazing - the colors are beautiful. Unfortunately my daughter had a hard time following the story line.I read in one Community Review that there was "not much in the way of a plot." Based on the story's amazing description, I might agree with this statement a little. I think the bigger problem my daughter had connecting with the story dealt with the writing style. A few Community Revi. She Loves It. BDJ My 6 year old grand-daughter loves this book. After I read it to her twice she asked so many questions about why they didn't have the facilities we have to obtain water. She's been carrying it around with her since she got it. I think this is the first book she connected with. So glad I purchased it.. "Beautiful writing and beautiful illustrations with a message that everyone should hear! Couldn't ask for more!" according to redoodyhouse. A beautifully written thoughtful book that explains that water isn't readily available to all people and we should really appreciate that we don't have to walk for hours to get water every day like many people do. The lyrical style is consistent with Verde's other books and is lovely and what makes the book extra special. It is easy for children to grasp the story, and I would suggest that if your child can't understand it it might might be too advanced for him or her.
