The Rainy Day Adventures of Jake's Umbrella

On a day when the weather suddenly changes from rainy to sunny, Jake accidentally leaves his umbrella on the bus. What happens next, and next, and after that, is a series of adventures. The umbrella travels from person to person and place to place - to the market, a birthday party, a school, music lessons, through a storm, and across the country - even a big brown puppy gets into the act! At the back of the book, a story wheel and a "find it"/"scavenger hunt" game add enjoyment to this imaginative tale from author Roz Silva, former home-schooling mom and substitute teacher. And the bright and colorful paintings by illustrator Sue Ann Erickson make the story especially memorable.Like the other children's stories by Silva and Erickson, The Rainy Day Adventures of Jake's Umbrella is a book to be enjoyed over and over. The whimsical story, told in rhyme, is perfect for parents or grandparents to share with young children, for older children to read to younger ones, and for young gifted readers.
