“A subtle, deceptively simple book about inclusion, hospitality,
and welcoming the ‘other.’” —Kirkus Reviews “A
boundlessly inclusive spirit...This open-ended picture book creates
a natural springboard for discussion.” —Booklist “This sweet
extended metaphor uses an umbrella to demonstrate how kindness and
inclusion work...A lovely addition to any library collection, for
classroom use or for sharing at home.” —School Library Journal
In the tradition of Alison McGhee’s Someday, beloved illustrator
Amy June Bates makes her authorial debut alongside her
eleven-year-old daughter with this timely and timeless picture book
about acceptance. By the door there is an umbrella. It is big. It
is so big that when it starts to rain there is room for everyone
underneath. It doesn’t matter if you are tall. Or plaid. Or
hairy. It doesn’t matter how many legs you have. Don’t worry
that there won’t be enough room under the umbrella. Because there
will always be room. Lush illustrations and simple, lyrical text
subtly address themes of inclusion and tolerance in this sweet
story that accomplished illustrator Amy June Bates cowrote with her
daughter, Juniper, while walking to school together in the rain.
