Summary: Chewandswallow is a small town where weird things occur. The weather is quite different than how you would describe our weather. The people of Chewandswallow never have to worry about going to the grocery store because all of their food is provided for them by the weather!
Educational Value: This book is a great read aloud to anyone as far as I know! I have loved this book ever since I was little and I still read it over and over. I think this book will allow students to explore their imaginations and escape reality.
