Summary: EXTRAORDINARY READING!!!!
Review: I told a friend that my husband loves Curious George and she suggested that we read this book. I took the book home yesterday and read it to my children, and they loved it. I enjoyed it so much that I am going to purchase the book this weekend. I would recommend this book to everyone. It is not just for children. The children were saying that they wished they lived in Chewandswallow, and so do I.

Summary: A "deliciously " funny book!
Review: In the land of Chewandswallow, you never have to make dinner. Just wait for a change in the weather and dessert will fall from the sky. When weather patterns change, this town is in for some nasty messes. When we can't think of anything for dinner at our house, my children will suggest that maybe we should drive over to Chewandswallow and pick up something there. A truely funny book for adults and children.

Summary: A fantastic fantasy book
Review: I've been trying to remember the name of this book forever to send it to my cousin. I loved this book when I was six or seven; I can remember my grandfather reading it to me. I recommend this book HIGHLY, and I am so thrilled to finally find it again. Where else but in fiction do complete meals rain from the sky?

Summary: I've finally found it!
Review: I found this book in 1978 and my 2nd grade teacher read it to our class one day. I loved the book but for some reason, I quickly forgot the name. It was only by chance that I recognized the book's title today on amazon.com. This book sparked my imagination when I was a child and I am ecstatic to have finally found it again. Definitely a fun read for any child!

Summary: Excellent for all ages!
Review: I was read this book when I was in 2nd grade by my Social Studies teacher. I was engulfed! I'd never heard of such a peculiar title and story! A pancake falling on a school? Hotdogs and orange juice coming from the sky? That couldn't really happen...could it?

Summary: Wacky, Fun, Creative -- all things important to a kid
Review: My three-year-old looks up at a setting sun, and sees a sliver of butter. This inventive and funny book does that to you -- you see things as only a childlike imagination can, and it carries the whole thing off in a perfect little story. Whenever I tell my daughter to "chew and swallow" her food, she breaks into giggles. That alone makes this book worthwhile.

Rating:
Summary: A book to stimulate the imagination!
Review: I stumbled across this book while on a trip to the public library with my two sons. They loved it! It's one of those books that is really good when you have a solid chunk of time, because the illustrations are so wonderful. There is something really significant in the picture on each page, and you have so much fun finding the funny, peculiar, weird, yucky things together. I've also read this book to a class of second-graders. It was one of their favorites! It stimulates the imagination of everyone who opens it. I consider it a classic!

Review: Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs is a delightfully funny book for children of all ages. I have used it in my second grade classroom for several years. The children love reading the book and always enjoy selecting their favorite weather in Chewandswallow. A creative teacher or parent can come up with many activities to go along with the book to aide in the children's learning
