A cloud who wants to be a police officer! Great art and fun story for kids.
A great book to incorporate a craft with and introduce children to civil service jobs. Which job does the cloud do better? The book allows you to think about what you want to do versus what you could actually do better. We choose a job or task based on a variety of reasons. Graduate college with a degree in one field yet work in another. Sometimes it's ok to fail at one thing because it just proves it wasn't meant to be.
Cute and entertaining! The illustrations are great "retro" fun (I love that the police chief looks a lot like the Monopoly man!)
Having dreamed of being a police officer since the time he was a tiny puff, the diaphanous hero of this sweet little picture-book is at first delighted when his friend, the police helicopter, convinces the chief to give him a job. But a series of disasters - the cloud inadvertently aids a burglar in his escape, causes a car accident, and ruins everyone's day at the park - leads to the heartbreaking realization that it is not to be. Fortunately, every cloud has a silver lining (sorry, couldn't re...
Simple, cute, with wonderful twist~
Yes, everyone belongs somewhere. Well done, Police cloud!

This is a good book for students to show them to chase their dreams. It could also teach them the lesson that if something you really want doesn't work out, it is okay. You will find something that works for you and you need to make sure you are happy. I don't think this title is very good because it is deceiving. This is a good book though to teach a plot twist because of the title and how the book ends.
“Ever since he was a small puff, he had dreamed to be a police officer”. A nice book for young children who dream with heroic professions. It tells the story of a police cloud and its misadventures trying to catch bad guys and patrolling. As he becomes an unexpected hero, the cloud also realizes that, sometimes, we are better at things we never dreamed about.
The illustrations in "The Police Cloud," are brightly colored and child friendly. Initially, I checked out the book because the front cover was cute.The imaginative simple text did not disappoint. Woven through the plotline are positive messages any age can benefit from.
I enjoyed this book. I felt it was funny, but also a lesson. The art was also great throughout this book. I also liked the message throughout the story. I would recommend this book to read to your children.
