We love Henry and Mudge! 
Henry and Mudge continue to be some of our favorite book characters. My daughter, age 3, especially loves this wonderful book series, although my son, now 7, seems to be growing out of them just a bit. _Henry and Mudge and the Wild Wind_ is not our favorite Henry and Mudge book by any means (we like most the first four, dealing with the seasons of the year), but it fits the familiar format. Henry and Mudge find themselves outside when a summer storm approaches, and beat it for home, since both are a bit afraid of thunderstorms. At home, Mom and Dad make the home safe and cosy by closing windows and making hot chocolate. Although Henry is cajoled into playing a fun pretend game with Dad (a little too war-like for my tastes, though), Mudge can't quite be convinced that thunder isn't scary, but it all comes out OK in the end as they venture out in the fresh clean air after the rainstorm has passed. Although I can understand the book's attempt at making possibly scary things like thunderstorms less scary by showing children that others are afraid also, why put that thought in their heads at all? I'd rather my children enjoy Nature in all her aspects.

Fun early reader or read-aloud selection 
This is a favorite of my family, among many excellent Henry and Mudge books. Cynthia Rylant is both funny and poetic, and illustrator Sucie Stevenson is the perfect complement with her wistful watercolor illustrations. Henry's rescue of Mudge from "the enemy couch" is always met with giggles from my daughters.

Mudge is a must!
Henry and his dog,Mudge must overcome their fears of a summer thunder storm. Henry tries to calm himself by whistling. Mudge whines, walks in circles, hides in the bathroom and even sticks his head between the couch cushions! This book is fun to read and has adorable illustrations. Mudge is a favorite in our household.
