A Julia Eccleshare Pick of the Month February 2023
A delightful picture book in which a tiny twist of magic enables a little boy’s small blue umbrella to grow big enough to shelter everyone from the heavy rain.
Calling out to all the people he sees, the little boy brings everyone, young and old, in families or alone, under the umbrella’s shelter. Suddenly they are all friends and they all realise that talking and laughing, working and playing together makes life more fun. A warm message lightly told and beautifully illustrated.
The most magical things can happen even on the rainiest of days... How many people can you fit under one umbrella? It wasn’t even meant to rain the day the blue umbrella turned up, but for the people who used it that day, they found something more than just shelter: something truly amazing had happened.
