One rainy day, a little boy is upset because he can't go out and play. His mom comes up with a way to keep him entertained--by drawing a picture of herself and him going outside, playing in the rain, and splashing in a giant puddle. They have so much fun drawing themselves that they decide to venture out and make the most of the rainy weather. Puddle : "Yum deftly ties moods, weather, parenting, and the power of art together. " ―Kirkus Reviews “It’s just a picture,” mother and son tell one another at various points, but Yum’s (This Is Our House) renderings―done in a rough, childlike style that fits the story to a T―and all-dialogue text prove that there’s powerful magic in every act of representation, no matter how novice the artist." ―Publishers Weekly , starred review Hyewon Yum is the author and illustrator of several acclaimed books for children, including This Is Our House , The Twins' Blanket , There Are No Scary Wolves , and Last Night . Her book Mom, It's My First Day of Kindergarten! received the Ezra Jack Keats New Illustrator Award. She lives in Brooklyn, New York, with her family.
