Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Mudluscious!
This is a wonderful book. The text is simple and poetic. The illustrations are incredible. They make youw ant to go and play in the mud! This is perfect book for two through five year olds. I can't wait to us eit in my pr0k class room.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - a new favorite
This is a wonderful book! No, there is no structured "story" told as one review pointed out. The story is told in the pictures and the well-chosen vocabulary.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Mud � The Fifth Season

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Don't judge a book by its cover
I bought this book for my Pre-K class, to go along with our weather unit on Rain. The cover looked so nice I thought it would be a great book. In fact, the illustrations are quite nice; the problem is there's really no story here. The language doesn't flow; its very choppy. The children didn't enjoy this book, and have not asked for it to be read again. Good children's literature should have a story to it: a setting, problem and solution; a definite beginning, middle and ending; and well-defined characters. ... Read More
