Drip,drop, skip and hop. Splish, splash, sidewalk dash! It''s worm weather! Join in the rainy-day fun, as kids splash through the puddles, affecting another weather enthusiast, a nearby worm. An imaginative and playful story, readers will love seeing the worm delight in the weather just as much as the kids. Review: Splosh - A lovely book which I bought to use with an SEN class learning about the weather. Would have liked to see a bit more about the worms, but loved the sound effects. Review: Will resonate with anyone who lives in a rainy climate; all around excellent book - Great book all around. The art is lovely and very textural. Has a chalk/pastel feel to it and I almost wonder if that was intentional to keep the art looking “dry”, as watercolour in this story may leave the reader with a damp/cold feeling. I enjoy the toned-down but not depressing colour palette, showing the beauty of a rainy day. The story starts out close to the children, but as the day progresses, aI notice the view widens to show more of the world around them. The story is set in the city, but shows outdoor nature, like parks. I am so glad both world’s were shown , as a city person, I find the beauty of the city and it’s accessibility are not showcased enough in children’s books. This is a quick read, a lyrical/poetic story about a brother and sister going out to play in the rain in all it’s glory. I enjoy the word play if “worm weather” over “warm weather”. Even though there are only a few words or sentences per page, there are many pages to this book, so it’s a very satisfying read. As someone who grew up on the west coast, the rain is very endearing for me and as a child playing in the rain is just a fact of life vs. a reason to hide indoors, so a book that shows how awesome our climate is is a win for me.

Everyone needs this book!
This is the cutest book you will ever read! It’s a short, quick read—perfect for a lesson at school or a quick story before bed. Great for discussing rhyming words, digraphs, or blends with kids. It’s also a great introductory book to discussing weather or even onomatopoeias. The possibilities are endless. Overall a fantastic book and a fantastic price.

Fun book for 3 year old
My toddlers love worms and I figured it was perfect time to buy with spring/rainy season starting. Cute rhymes and short read with lovely illustrations.

Perfect for springtime!
Love this book. Cute as all get out and wonderful for spring and talking about “worm weather” as they pop out in the rainy weather. My daughter adores it and asks me to read it almost daily.
