The weather is gloomy on the farm, so the farmer and his wife go to the beach, but the bad weather follows them. All of the sciencey definitions of clouds and etc on the signs felt really out of place. Also I was confused why the farm animals experienced bad weather on the beach, but the farmers had a great time in the sun on the same day?? Estoy confundida.

did not like it as much as i thought i would. it's about these farmers who take their animals to the beach for some sun. the clouds follow the animals apparently. it rains and they go home.

After experiencing 80 days and 80 nights of continuous rain with no sun, Farmer Claude and Farmer Maude pack up their truck and go in search of the sun. The dog, goat, rooster, and goat tag along, but what they find is totally different from what Claude and Maude find. Silly fun with facts about clouds, and other science facts about the Earth, and weather.

Farmer Claude and Farmer Maude and their animals set out in search of sunny weather as it's been raining for 80 days and nights. Will they find sun or more form of rain? Great nonfiction bits but a complex so preschool or one on one.
