Summary
:
This artfully written story from award-winning author Melanie Florence celebrates both the universal joys of playing in the rain and the connections to family traditions that center and ground us.

Melanie Florence is an award-winning writer of Cree and Scottish heritage based in Toronto, ON. Hawlii Pichette is a Mushkego Cree (Treaty 9) urban mixed-blood artist and illustrator. Born and raised in the small community of Cochrane, ON, she is deeply influenced by her culture, her upbringing and the natural world.
