Waiting Out the Storm

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Susan Gaber. From the first whispers of the wind calling the raindrops to the stomping thunder and lightning, a mother encourages her daughter to appreciate the progression of a rainstorm. Although the child voices concerns, her mother's gentle answers reassure her that she and the animals are safe. Soft acrylic illustrations provide a comfortable setting for this quiet, evocative text.
