"Pithy poetry pairs with artful illustrations....Memorable and instructive without a hint of didacticism."-Kirkus Reviews Starred ReviewThe weather has never been worse. The man with the stormy heart is soaked and he's going to be late! His mood is as black as the sky. Outside a nearby patisserie, a little boy stands under the shelter of its awning, gazing at the beautiful treats on display. When the wind snatches the man's umbrella and drops it at the child's feet, can this hasty curmudgeon slow down long enough for an unlikely friendship to blossom?Catherine Buquet's touching debut in lyrical rhyme, accompanied by Marion Arbona's bold and stylish illustrations, celebrates intergenerational friendship and the magic of sharing. It also reminds children and adults alike that bright moments can be found on even the gloomiest of days. STARRED REVIEW "Pithy poetry pairs with artful...Arbona's fantastical illustrations play with perspective, shape, and pops of bright color that enliven scenes primarily composed of black, gray, and white. Buquet's text is translated into well-crafted verse by Woods. Memorable and instructive without a hint of didacticism."-Kirkus Reviews Starred Review STARRED REVIEW "Under the Umbrella is as sweet and lovingly constructed as the brightest treat in a bakery window."-Quill & Quire Starred Reviewmehr

Autor

Catherine Buquet has never forgotten the books that mesmerized her as a child. After completing her studies in Modern Literature and teaching for several years, she began writing stories for children, and is now a full-time writer. Catherine has read countless stories: at bedtime and during the day, at university, to her students; and to her own daughters. Under the Umbrella is her first picture book.
