	Bringing the Rain to Kapiti Plain (Reading Rainbow Books) (Paperback, 1992) By Verna Aardema	Ages 4-8	11/17/2009 Add
	curbj402 said: This cumulative tale tells about a plain that has gone dry, and how Ki-Pat, the sheppard, brought the rain back. The text builds on itself and rhymes like the tale, The House that Jack Built. A reader could tell from the pictures what was happening, but the text enriches the suspense of the book with its rhythm. This book was a Reading Rainbow Notable book in 1981. The illustrations are physically accurate and the colors are daring with its multicolored cows and lightening. There are various animals native to Africa represented tags: I read, I recommend
