Summary:
Shortly after his parents have separated, Nick visits his father on a gray, rainy day and they take a long walk in the storm.
Ned has been waiting all week for this day to come, because this is the day he spends with his dad. But what is there to do on a rainy day? In this poignant book, Ned and his father spend a rain-soaked day together jumping into puddles, exploring in the park, and dodging crashing waves and plumes of spray at the seashore. Along the way, they discover that no matter what they do or how they spend their day, the happiness that they feel is from being together. Emma Haughton's subtle text is accompanied by Angelo Rinaldi's exquisite paintings, which reveal the emotion and honesty of the characters throughout the book.
