A spacious umbrella welcomes anyone and everyone who needs shelter from the rain.

Following in the footsteps of Alison McGhee in her classic Someday, popular illustrator Amy June Bates makes her debut as an author alongside her 11-year-old daughter with this timely and perennial book on acceptance. Next to the front door is an umbrella. Is big. It is so big that when it starts to rain there is room for everyone under it. It doesn't matter if you are tall. Or if you wear plaid clothes. Or if you are hairy. It doesn't matter how many legs or legs you have. Don't worry that there won't be enough space under the umbrella. Because there will always be space. Lush illustrations and simple lyrical text subtly touch on themes of inclusion and tolerance in this charming tale that successful illustrator Amy June Bates wrote with her daughter, Juniper, as they walked together to school in the rain.
