A little cloud puffs into the house just as Nell starts her hunt. Each clue leads to a new place, and each loud cloud mishap makes the trail harder to follow. A playful ou and ow decodable with three comic backfires, a chantable refrain and a missing ball that has been close all along. Cloud in the House follows picture clues to a missing object, checking one plausible place on every spread, using a predictable one-event-per-spread story rule. The chant is "Cloud, house, out!"; at the payoff, the missing object has been following the searcher all along. Controlled text leans on cloud, loud, round, found, house plus only previously secured spellings and a tiny disclosed heart-word bank.
