A bit forced and not as enjoyable as the previous story.

Here is the sequel to Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. This is about a girl dreaming of a land where food falls from the sky. They explore the entire land and find that the people collect all the food falling and export it to the rest of the world to feed hungry people. They are able to wipe out hunger. OJ falls from the sky, there is a pea soup collection pond and they collect melted ice cream. The girl wakes up and shares her dream with her grandfather.
I think I enjoyed the first one better, but this was pretty good on imagination. At least some industry was collecting the food and shipping it out. I do wonder how they keep it fresh. It starts off with black and white artwork, but the girl’s dream is in color.
The nephew loved this story. Falling hotdogs and hamburger mountains appealed to him. He thought this would be too cool to see. He wanted a giant donut he could jump through the hole. He gave this 5 stars and he then asked for a snack.

Food glorious food
Food distribution from falling food island, that is a very cool idea and shows that the movies really went on a huge tangent at this one. I love the colour change from the world to the story. There are so many small hints that I really enjoy the continued tale but dang it makes me hungry to read.

A letdown after the excellent Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs. Too preachy and not fun enough. Sigh...

The sequel to "Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs" and we didn't love it like we did its predecessor. Has a nice UU message to it, though, but no magic and it didn't amaze us by any means. Disappointing.
