Drop: An Adventure Through the Water Cycle

(3) K-3 This book stars Drop--a drop of water--who happily changes form through the millennia ("I'm four and half billion!"), demonstrating the concept that water is a limited resource. Unless she's a solid or gas, Drop appears in the lively illustrations as a light blue splotch (the chatty media note states that "Drop loves to drop from a dropper!"). As the main text follows Drop's journey--from oceans to air to clouds to glaciers--she adds upbeat comments: e.g., "Here I gooo!" and "Guess I gotta be cool with this!" In the end, Drop makes her way to "YOU!" in the form of food and drink, a satisfying conclusion to the engaging adventure.
