Rain! (Board Book) - Linda Ashman

2014 Ezra Jack Keats New Illustrator Award Winner *Altogether delightful. -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review One rainy day in the city, an eager little boy exclaims, Rain Across town a grumpy man grumbles, Rain. In this endearing book, now in board book format, a rainy-day cityscape comes to life in vibrant, cut-paper-style artwork. The boy in his green frog hat splashes in puddles--Hoppy, hoppy, hoppy --while the old man curses the dang puddles. Can the boy's natural exuberance (and perhaps a cookie) cheer up the grouchy gentleman and turn the day around?
