[ 책 소개 ]
"Sky Tree", "Water Dance", "Where the river begins" 등 자연을 주제로 한 정교한 세밀화로 수많은 베스트셀러 그림책을 남긴 토마스 록커의 대표작 중 하나입니다.
마치 춤을 추듯, 다양한 색상과 형태를 지니고서 하늘을 떠가는 구름들이 시간의 흐름에 따라, 또는 계절의 변화에 따라 어떤 모습으로 변하는지를 아름다운 유화그림으로 보여줍니다.
눈부신 석양빛에 물들은 구름은 밝은 빛을 내다가 점차 빛을 잃지요.
밤하늘에 달빛을 받은 구름은 가장자리가 은빛으로 빛납니다.
가을하늘에는 높고 성긴 구름이 바람을 타고 달려갑니다.
겨울하늘의 구름은 낮고 두껍게 깔려 있으며, 반짝반짝 빛나는 눈을 뿌립니다.
봄철 새벽하늘의 구름은 부드럽고 장미빛을 띄고 흘러가며,
따뜻한 햇볕을 받아 호숫가에는 안개의 커튼이 드리워집니다.
여름하늘에는 뭉게구름들이 마치 행진을 하듯 푸른하늘을 가로질러 흘러가고,
때로는 회색 뭉게구름 사이의 황금빛 테두리 사이로 몇가닥의 햇빛이 새어 나오며,
거대한 뭉게구름의 탑이 하늘 높이 솟아 오르면, 곧 폭우가 쏟아진다는 신호이지요....
책 말미에는 구름의 종류와 생성원인, 구름 만들기 실험 방법 등 과학적인 지식들을 정리해서 수록하고 있습니다.

Book Description
Have you ever wondered about the clouds that roam the skies?
Cloud Dance takes readers on a journey up to the heavens, through thick cumulous clouds that bring snow, wispy cirrus clouds that flutter in the wind, and wide stratus clouds that blanket the sky. Basic scientific information sheds light on the altitude, shape, and color of clouds, and Thomas Locker's luminous paintings and poetic text create an inspiring and enlightening book for everyone to enjoy.
Publishers Weekly
This companion to Water Dance includes a series of the artist's distinctive skyscapes, each paired with a single poetic sentence. Endnotes present scientific information about clouds in a q&a format.
Children's Literature
"Clouds of many shapes and sizes drift and dance across the sky" as a mother and child walk the banks of a lake, observing them through their multiplicity of changes. Sparse prose poems share double-spread pages with luminous paintings, inviting us to fill in our own impressions. This is a book to submerge in, to remember, to dream about, to float around and also to learn from, as the last pages, written by science teacher Candace Christiansen, give us important facts and figures about clouds. Artist-author Locker has produced a beautiful and useful book for anyone curious about those collections of floating water droplets so constantly above us.
School Library Journal
This beautifully designed book celebrates clouds as they appear during the different hours of the day and seasons of the year. Each two-page spread features a few lines of prose on the verso and an illustration encompassing most of the recto. The oil paintings are done in subdued and relaxing colors. Many of them show a small child walking with an adult on a path. The book does not have a lot of action, but would be perfect for quiet and relaxed sharing between adult and child. Factual information about clouds is provided on the last two pages.
