Here is a wonderfully onomatopoeic celebration
of the delights of a wet (wet) day seen through the eyes of two exuberant
children who at first would much prefer to travel by car. If you are reading this aloud to a
group, please practise first – it is full of traps for the unwary but once
mastered is an absolute delight! The watercolour images all add to the ambience
of a memorable day.
