A beautifully illustrated picture book introducing toddlers to animals on a rainy summer day. It's a rainy summer day, and Kitten is meeting all sorts of animals taking shelter from or enjoying the warm rain, including a fox, a turtle, a beaver and many more. As in the two previous titles in the Kitten series, rhyming couplets capture the animals' actions, making this book another fantastic interactive read-aloud. Young readers will delight in discovering animal habitats, picking out seasonal details in the exquisite mixed-media art, and searching for and finding Kitten on every page. AUTHOR: Eugenie Fernandes loved making her own little books when she was a young girl, and today she is one of Canada's most established author-illustrators. Her many books include Kitten's Autumn, Kitten's Summer and A Difficult Day (author and illustrator), Sleepy Little Mouse and Busy Little Mouse (author) and Earth Magic and One Hen (illustrator).
