Sidney the Lonely Cloud by Tim Hopgood
4.0
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix

 
This book is adorable. Sydney is a cloud, a rain cloud. Whenever Sydney shows up most people are mad they’re angry. They want Sydney to go away so they can enjoy their fun in the sun. But Sydney just needed to find the right location. Someplace dry and very hot. Where rain is a blessed event that everybody comes out to take pardon. To smile to play to be excited. And Sydney gets to join in all the fun. Kids are going to love this book not just for the story but for the illustrations and it’s really nice to see how the same thing can be both good and bad all based on someone’s perception.
