Puddle was a small cloud with a very big wish.
He wanted to jump in a puddle.
He could drift. He could drizzle. He could make excellent shade.
But when he tried to jump—
up he floated.
"That," said Puddle, "is the wrong direction."

The Cloud With Muddy Boots
Puddle can drift, drizzle, and make wonderful shade. But what he really wants is to jump in a puddle. Unfortunately, clouds are rather floaty. With Bea's help, a pair of yellow boots, and a wonderfully unexpected idea, Puddle discovers that joining in can look different for everyone. A bright, funny read-aloud about inventiveness and belonging.
