When you read this book, you will be left with the joy of experiencing a creative excursion into the mind of a child. A great book for K-Grade 5 and elementary teachers. The motivation for this book originated from Robert's inspiring relationship with his loving grandparents, love for his daughter Aubree and love for all children and with their openness to creative thinking. The drawing of the main character (the young girl) was created by Aubree when she was five years old. Robert saved it as a treasure. Twenty years later, the drawing became the main character in this darling picture book "Dancing with the Rain". G.A.R.
