Rain and Sun are neighbors in the sky and good friends … until the harmony between them is threatened by stormy weather. How do you forgive a friend?
Rain doesn’t realize that people don’t always like to see her — socks can get wet and streets can flood — just as Sun doesn’t realize that his hot rays can be too much at times. One afternoon the two meet for tea, but both are cranky and they are soon flinging hurtful words at each other. Moments later, Rain and Sun are dismayed by what has happened between them. Can they mend their friendship?
Guilherme Semionato has written a tender story about friendship and finding forgiveness that will resonate with readers young and old. It is deeply enriched by Paula Schiavon’s imaginative watercolor illustrations.
