Product Description
If food dropped like rain from the sky, wouldn't it be marvelous! Or would it? It could, after all, be messy. And you'd have no choice. What if you didn't like what fell? Or what if too much came? Have you ever thought of what it might be like to be squashed flat by a pancake? |

A great classic 
This book is nothing but the silliest tall tale ever, about a town where food "falls from the sky", but it works.
My nieces really sit still for this one, which is sometimes a bit of an accomplishment :)
I will say that it goes on a bit long in parts, describing the way food falls from the sky, but it's not that big a deal to me.

Children's book 
"Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs" is a fanciful and entertaining book that I read to my children when they were young. I purchased one for my newest grandchild and my son was thrilled to have a book from his childhood to read to his daughter.

Lousy presentation 
The story is great, but I am returning the item because the book jacket is awful. I ordered a hardcover, and the book itself has no picture or title on the cover, only the book jacket shows the cover. That alone is odd, but this jacket is as thin as a piece of paper! It won't survive one year in my classroom. I've never seen such cheap, lazy packaging in my life. The pages are also thin and tender, they aren't strong glossy pages like most books. As much as I love this story, it's not worth the money because it won't last.

A timeless children's classic.
Perfect. A great story well told and beautifully illustrated, in an appropriately sized format. Who doesn't fantasize about food? And how about food on a colossal scale? And as the weather itself? Good, good fun.

Great book!
Love this book! I remember borrowing this book from the library when I was growing up and I had to share it with my children. My 2 boys really enjoy this book, especially when the food is gigantic. I would highly recommend this book for children of all ages.
