ˇlluvia!/Rain!/Linda Ashman

Description 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 colors, 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.
