Bewolkt met kans op balletjes

Deze serie duikt in het eigenzinnige stadje waar de weersvoorspelling altijd heerlijk is. In plaats van regen of sneeuw ervaren de bewoners maaltijden uit de lucht, met alles van soep tot hamburgers die vallen tijdens ontbijt, lunch en diner. De verhalen verkennen de aanvankelijke vreugde en verwondering van dit unieke culinaire klimaat, naast de groeiende uitdagingen wanneer het eten te veel wordt om te hanteren. Het is een heerlijk en fantasievol avontuur over het omarmen van absurditeit en het vinden van oplossingen voor onverwachte, smakelijke rampen.

  1. The town of Chewandswallow is just like any other town, except that the weather supplies all the food the residents need. Whatever the sky serves is what they eat. The people watch the weather report to know what they will be eating the next day. Life is just grand—until the weather takes a turn for the worse, the food starts getting disgusting, and the portions grow too big to handle. Now its residents must abandon Chewandswallow and start over in a different town. But isn't it odd that in their new town, they have to purchase food in supermarkets? How will they ever get used to their new way of life? This funny and highly inventive story, with fantastically intricate illustrations, is a great pick for introducing weather concepts. A New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Book, it's also the original book behind the major motion picture.
