Crum, Shutta Thunder-Boomer, illustrated by Carol Thompson. Clarion, 2009. $16.00. PICTURE BOOK. A Mid-West family is spending a hot day on their farm until a summer storm brings noise, rain and hail to them and another surprise as well. Students who live in “thunder-boomer” territory will most appreciate the violence and beauty of a summer storm. While I’m not a big fan of the illustrations, they do evoke the terrible-ness of the storm well. EL – OPTIONAL. Cindy, Library-Teacher.
