One of my favourite books from elementary school. In the town of Chewandswallow, all their food rains down from the sky ... until the weather gets worse! Great illustrations.

For the hilarious sense of humor: playing with food takes on a new twist! It will rain food--only, like the weather, you never can tell just what :-) Small town friendliness throughout book.

This was my all time favorite book as a child. Anytime I see it I have to quickly read it again. A great story about a town where all the food falls from the sky!

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?

Card catalog description
Life is delicious in the town of Chewandswallow where it rains soup and juice, snows mashed potatoes, and blows storms of hamburgers--until the weather takes a turn for the worse.
