Thunder-Boomer! by Shutta Crum illustrated by Carol Thompson*

The heat is oppressive at the farm.  Mom declares that they need a "thunder-boomer" to bring reprieve.
When one arrives, everyone dashes to the house for cover.  The narrator's favorite chicken, Maizey, however, is still out in the storm.  When dad rescues her, she seems annoyed.  What is she hiding?  Cute ending.
The title is cleverly designed.
Lots of onomatopoeia words!  A perfect book to share when introducing onomatopoeia words.
*Highly recommend.
*Borrowed from the library.
