I thought the summary for this book sounded interesting, but that is where the interesting stopped. A wordless picture book, this story feels like it has too much art. It is divided into so many panels that it gets hard to follow, and it feels like kids will struggle to keep up. The cloud mentioned in the title also takes too long to surface, and I struggled to even get to that point. Fine for older readers who want to decipher the art, but not for smaller children.

I think this book is really good for any young child's library, or in my case an early preschool classroom. I really enjoyed the light-hearted feel of the story and that it had no words, I think my kids at work will really enjoy it. Especially once they get to the part where Matias and his puppy start messing with the cloud and seeing the different ways that they can use it. It's silly, it's fun, and overall an enjoyable story.

An extremely original picture book. Shown in snippets like a graphic novel, this book has no words, but still paints a beautiful story. I think readers of all ages will find delight in lending their imagination to this story.
