"Enchanting and imaginative, this gentle, playful picture book addresses an anxious child's need to find control." - The Guardian
A tender picture and insightful read-aloud picture book about anxiety: showing children aged 3-7 years old they do not have to carry their worries alone - there's always room under your umbrella for someone else.
The debut picture book from the award-winning Sarah Crossan, stunningly illustrated by Rebecca Cobb, illustrator of The Paper Dolls by Julia Donaldson.
Tallulah doesn't like the rain. It spoils her new dress. It makes her favourite biscuits soggy. It ruins EVERYTHING. So, she gets an umbrella from Grandma. For a while, she feels better... But is one umbrella enough? Talullah worries about rain thundering down, and washing her away. She decides that she needs complete protection. So she gets another TOTALLY BIG umbrella and under her umbrella house, Talullah feels safe.
But ... is Talullah missing out on all the fun happening around her? How can she manage her fears and still BE in the world?
- A reassuring and funny story about anxiety and fear and the ways that these can hold children back from embracing all of life's joys.
- Perfect for any young reader who may be feeling insecure - the book will inspire confidence and show them the value in branching out of the familiar.
- The debut picture book from Sarah Crossan whose novels, including The Weight of Water and One, have won the CILIP Carnegie Medal, CBI Book of the Year, the YA Book Prize, the CLiPPA Poetry Award, and whose books have been translated into over 25 languages.
- Rebecca Cobb is a Waterstones prize-winner and the best-selling author-illustrator of A Wild Walk to School and the illustrator of The Paper Dolls by Julia Donaldson. She has also been shortlisted for the Kate Greenaway Medal.
