Illustrated by
Violeta Dabija.
Calling attention to water helps children appreciate this necessary and ubiquitous resource. In lilting rhymed text, Salas shows readers that water can be "many things": a "thirst quencher" and "kid drencher"; a "cloud fluffer" and "fire snuffer." Each couplet is attractively illustrated, predominantly in various shades of blues and greens. Appended "More About Water" explanations help extend the text.
