Rain, Rain, Go Away

'The Mole SIsters' has the look of a board book, but the head and heart of a (very small) picture book: There are engaging characters, a compelling, dynamic, and the twists and turns of problem-solving. It's got a little more, well, substance to it than similar works, yet it maintains a light touch throughout. The mole sisters' plan for a beautiful day outdoors clashes with the reality of an increasingly heavy rainfall. "IT won't last," they say, but it does. Quick like a ...a mole...they scurry down into their hole, relieved that they've out of the storm. However, their smiles turn to concern when their roof begins to leak. Ever hopeful, they repeat the consoling words,"It won;t last," but once again, it actually worsens. Their ingenious solution works with the rain, turning their watery floor into a swimming pool! Even in its simplicity, the book suggests some sophisticated ideas: That unyielding optimism won't control everything, that one can work with nature, and that acceptance coupled with adaptation is a powerful tool. They have a swimmingly good time, and, at the conclusion, their wishes eventually come true: The wet weather DOESN'T last; the storm is over. The book's centered illustrations have lots of white space on each page, and the soft colored pencil feels a little like the Beatrix Potter books ("Peter Rabbit," and all the rest). One can go to this small gem in any climate, but it might be especially appreciated when it's rainy and wet outside.

Loved it!

What a sweet book! We received this book as a gift. From the first time I read it to my daughter, I was enchanted. The illustrations are beautiful. The story is simple, yet highly entertaining. My 21 month old daughter has completely fallen in love. She can be heard going through the house going "Whoosh . . .YIKES!" (from the book). I HIGHLY recommend this book for your little ones. Can't wait to get another Mole Sister book!

Best Childrens Book Ever!

I have just read this wonderful little gem of a book to my 3 kids and they absolutely adore it! I have recommended it to my whole family, friends and anyone that asks me about it. It is absolutely fantastic. The colours, the story it is the perfect book for any young children.
