Blue has invited Magenta, Purple Kangaroo, Green Puppy, Yellow Kitten and Orange Kitten over for a play date. The only problems is that it's raining outside!

Blue then decides to set up a scavenger hunt *inside* the house and, with the help of Steve and her friends, they go about the house finding the items on the list.

There are socks, a box, buttons, fabric, glue, and yarn all over Blue's house. What does Blue want to do with all these items once they're found?

You and your youngster will find out when you read Blue's Best Rainy Day. Filled with colorful pictures, children have the ability to test their discrimination skills as they find the specific items on Blue's scavenger hunt list.

Not only that, children are shown that optimism and ingenuity can turn a potentially disappointing situation into an opportunity to use their imagination and have lots of fun...fun they may not have had if things turned out how they expected.

My son requests this book quite often and I'm sure other young readers will enjoy this delightful book as well.

Blues Clues the show burns a hole in my brain if I watch it for more that 2 minutes, but my son loves it. The next best thing is the books. Bright pictures and simple reading....and no annoying actors. Win-win.

If your child is a fan of Blue's Clues, he/she will be a fan of the book!

"Blue's Best Rainy Day" features Blue and her friends over on a play date. It's raining outside, but that's not going to discourage Blue. She's come up with a great idea --- a scavenger hunt. This fun hunt sends Steve, us and all of her friends around the Blue's Clues house to look for various items. And there's a purpose to the items too, something that Blue wants to do with them once they're all done.

It's "Blue's Clues" with a twist, a search-and-find game. The same sort of energetic fun we love and expect from the show. This book introduces us to a room in the house I'm not sure we've ever seen before on the show, the "mudroom." There's also a Yellow Kitten in addition to Orange Kitten that I can't recall ever seeing before, or again.

This book is a Steve story, of course, and therefore is not based in any way on "The Scavenger Hunt" from the television show.

I wasn't sure my son would like this book because it doesn't feature a clue game. However, it is interactive, so he follows along and seems to enjoy it. Blue holds a scavenger hunt for her friends, and the reader plays along to help find the things on her list. I don't recall that this is based on an episode, so I think the story is new.

I bought this book because we were living in the caribbean where if we were stuck indoors, it was because of the rain, or hurricane season. I thought "ok, let's make this look like fun". In fact, it rains everywhere. The story is about a group of Blue's friends who have to stay indoors because of the weather (it could even be a snowstorm if you're in Alaska or Canada!)and find something to do as a fun activity.
It's an entertaining book as you hunt for clues page by page until you piece together all the clues to find your answer. I like Blue's---good idea for children.

My graddaughter loves Blues Clues so I thought she would enjoy this book and she did, she has to have this book read to her everynight before she goes to bed.

My niece likes Blue's Best Rainy Day the best out of all the books she has.
