In The Umbrella, a little Scottie dog find a red umbrella on a very windy day. But -WHOOSH!- the wind picks up the doggie like he's Mary Poppins, and off he goes. Off into the sky, what awaits him nobody knows.
The pictures are very rich and vivid. And , being a wordless picture book, one can create a story and add special effects ( I did this book for a daycare visit today and the children really loved me going " Brrrr" when a pelican drops him off at the North Pole and some seals are going " ARF, ARF".) There is a happy ending for our furry traveler, and a cute twist, too!
