Description
One rainy day, a little boy is upset because he can't go out and play. His mom comes up with a way to keep him entertained--by drawing a picture of herself and him going outside, playing in the rain, and splashing in a giant puddle. They have so much fun drawing themselves that they decide to venture out and make the most of the rainy weather.

"Yum deftly ties moods, weather, parenting, and the power of art together." --Kirkus Reviews
"It's just a picture," mother and son tell one another at various points, but Yum's (This Is Our House) renderings--done in a rough, childlike style that fits the story to a T--and all-dialogue text prove that there's powerful magic in every act of representation, no matter how novice the artist." --Publishers Weekly, starred review
