Overview

"From the Caldecott Honor-winning illustrator of Last Stop on Market Street, this bilingual board book is perfect for on-the-go storytime - rain or shine! A rainy-day city comes to life when a boy in his green frog hat splashes in puddles - ""Hoppy, hoppy, hoppy!"" - while an old man curses the ""dang puddles."" Can the boy's smile turn the grumpy man's frown upside down? With brilliant cut-paper art and bold colours, ¡Lluvia/Rain! - a bilingual board book featuring a diverse cast of characters - is an extraordinarily simple yet sophisticated journey from feeling sad and gloomy to radiating happiness and joy. AGES: 0 to 3 AUTHOR: Linda Ashman is the author of many picture books, including Babies on the Go, illustrated by Jane Dyer, Castles, Caves, and Honeycombs which was named a Booklist Editors' Choice, and Rub-a-Dub Sub."
