Rain by Sam Usher.
PICTURE BOOK. Templar, 2017. $17.
BUYING
ADVISORY: EL (K-3) – ADVISABLE
AUDIENCE
APPEAL: HIGH
It’s
raining and a young boy wants to go out and play. Will the rain stop or will he
set off through the downpour to have an adventure with his granddad?
A
plot that is at times a bit confusing, as though some pages are missing, is
greatly helped by illustrations reminiscent of Quentin Blake. Younger readers should
be able to overlook content weaknesses and instead enjoy the imagery of a cold
wet day and feel cozy throughout the read.
