Make rainy days fun days with this little toddler-friendly story.
Which child doesn't enjoy splashing in puddles These three little children love rainy days. They pull on their boots and raincoats and go out to explore. In sing-song rhyming text, this book explores the delights of a rainy day, from stomping in puddles, noticing which animals hide and which come out in the rain, to seeing a beautiful rainbow in the sky.
Growing up on the Wirral and in Germany, Anna wrote plays about talking animals, and stories about naughty children, and drew on every available surface. After school, she did an Art Foundation course, then a degree in German Literature & Philosophy at Oxford University. In 1998 she found her perfect job at Usborne in London, writing about everything from curious penguins to trips to the Moon.
