Rain Came Down

Oh, boy. It's one of the rainy days when everyone is feeling out of sorts. The dog is barking and the truck driver is arguing and "still the rain came down." It's just one big temper tantrum after another. In fact if you look down at the town it looks like everyone is crabby with someone else. And then, the sun comes out!

Hooray! That sunshine brings out the best side of everyone and they all turn in to helpful, kind folks. It's a lot of fun to see the crankiness and delightful to see it all dissolve into the sunny side up.

************

On Saturday morning, the rain came down. It made the chickens squawk. The cat yowled at the chickens, and the dog barked at the cat. And still, the rain came down." The barking dog wakes the baby, the dog barks louder, and a policeman comes.  His police car blocks traffic, and a woman in a taxi yells, so the taxi driver honks his horn.  The truck driver in front of him gets mad and starts honking back.

The beauty parlor owner comes out to look, and she bumps into the barber, and they begin to argue.  A painter bonks the barber on the head with a can of paint, and then the baker opens up his umbrella and pokes the pizza man.

On and on and on until suddenly . . . . . . the rain stops! The sun comes out, everything shimmers, and all of the bickering townspeople make amends–even the arguing children, who get free ice cream cones.---from the publisher
