Advantages: Great illustrations, develops children's imaginations. Disadvantages: None
'Little Cloud' is one of the less well known Eric Carle books in comparison to the 'The very hungry caterpillar' and 'The bad-tempered ladybird'. It is nonetheless, definitely worth a mention as it is a charming book, well loved by the children I have read it to.
~ The Story ~
It's about a little cloud who drifts along in the sky behind all of the other larger clouds which eventually move out of it's sight.
The little cloud who now feels like a giant cloud as it isn't being 'dwarfed' by all of the larger ones, drifts along and changes itself in to many things: a sheep, an aeroplane, a shark, a rabbit etc.
On each change of shape a reason is given for the little cloud changing in to it's chosen object, e.g. it loved to watch rabbits dash across the meadow & it liked the way trees never moved and stayed in one place ...
Advantages: a beautiful, amazing and subtle book. Disadvantages: david mitchell's style can be an aquired taste.

If you are looking for a book that is a little out of the ordinary then I would definately recommend this. It is great to read on the train, or on holiday. I have recommended it to ...
Advantages: smells great, moisturises and leaves skin feeling soft Disadvantages: some may dislike the cinnamon aroma
and White Fluffy Clouds is a bubble bar which is sky blue and white in colour. The reason I bought this bubble bar was because it looked really similar to the Lush Comforter Bubble Bar which I really liked; the only difference between both bubble bars is the fragrance which the produce and the actual colouring of them. When I bought the Blue Skies and White Fluffy Clouds Bubble Bar I was really looking forward to using it after loving the Comforter Bubble Bar as much. The bright colouring and swirls on the Bubble bar makes it quite noticeable in the Lush Shop as it stands out a little from the others ones in the range. I think that the bubble bar looks really similar to that of a decorative piece of handmade soap; it has the same appearance and feel to a bar of soap, as it is quite hard to the touch and doesn't have a sticky, powdery or greasy ...
