Catty Jane doesn't like rainy days; she finds them to be gray, dreary, and wet. When it rains, she can't even muster the energy to read, play a game, or eat a cookie. Her mother is happy when Piggy, Froggy, and Goose show up: they all love the rain and share their reasons why. But Catty Jane refuses to change her tune. That is until her adventuresome friends come up with a solution: having a rainy-day party!
Piggy, Froggy, and Goose are on such a roll that they come up with creative alternatives to Catty Jane's criticisms of rain and being outside in it. This is a very handy and realistic children's picture book for helping kids from 3 - 8 years of age see that it is easy to change from negative thoughts to positive ones.
Let's roll out the red carpet for writer and illustrator Valeri Gorbachev who has fashioned a mind-altering tale that shows the transformations and fun that can come from giving up the stories we tell ourselves about rain and a host of other things. Catty Jane learns that play is better than negativity any day.
