A heartfelt picture book about differences, acceptance, and loving yourself for who you are.
Wherever
he goes, Rain Boy brings wet—which means he's not very popular. Sun
Kidd brings sunshine everywhere she goes, so everyone loves her. Only
Sun Kidd sees what's special about Rain Boy. But when she invites him to
her birthday party, disaster strikes, and Rain Boy storms. Now the
world is nothing but rain. Will the other kids ever love Rain Boy for
being himself? And. more importantly, can Rain Boy learn to love his
rain? Debut author and illustrator Dylan Glynn's colorful and evocative
illustrations color this story with all the emotions of the rainbow in
this universal story of reaching out to those who look different from
you, making new friends, and learning to love yourself.
