Then it Rained Author:Crystal J. Stranaghan Then it Rained is a triumphant story of one child's determination to challenge conventional wisdom, make his voice heard and live his life to the fullest - whatever the weather! — James finds his frustration mounting as time and again his plans are called off because of the rain. Finally pushed to the breaking point, he makes his voice heard: — "... more »I was four and then five, pretty soon I'll be seven.
I'm NOT staying inside until I'm eleven!"
The lyrically written story begs to be read aloud, while striking illustrations bring the characters vividly to life. Readers, both young and young at heart, will enjoy reading this story again and again.
Then it Rained is the first title from Gumboot Books, a new Vancouver based company with an international pool of talent that specializes in producing children's books. Be sure to look for Vernon and the Snake in Trafford's bookstore, and keep your eyes open for Caleb and The Mess, and the first book in The Thirteenth Floor series coming in 2007!
