(3) K-3 Illustrated by Dyanna Wolcott. A little girl feels every bit as gray as the sky outside, despite her parents' cheering efforts. But rushing outside to stomp in the rain helps turn this "howling, prowling, scowling" grouch calm, as the whole family joins in an exuberant rainy romp. Soft, melting watercolors echo her feelings and the weather, which grows warmer and brighter along with the protagonist.
