Starred Review:

The Little Girl and the Rain

Enchanting and poetic, this picture book suggests a new way to look at rainy days. A lonely girl is caught in the rain on her way home; she rushes inside, but the rain searches for her. The rain is rebuffed at every turn—until it finds the girl, dressed in a raincoat and splashing in a puddle. Other rain-loving creatures join in as colorful, layered raindrops fall on geese, frogs, and flowers before turning to a spray of rainbows in the sun.
