Book Descriptions
for C.L.O.U.D.S. by Pat Cummings
From Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC)
In a wonderfully original fantasy, weather is completely dependent upon an artistic bureaucracy called Creative Lights, Opticals, and Unusual Designs in the Sky and, as the newest employee, young Chuku is given the most unrewarding position as weather artist for New York City where "no one ever looks up." Cummings' use of sharp angles, shifting perspectives and electric colors suit the fantasy perfectly. (Ages 4-8)
