The Storm Book Paperback – January 15, 1989 by Charlotte Zolotow (Author), Margaret Bloy Graham (Illustrator)
It is a day in the country,
and everthing is hot and still.
Then the hazy sky begins to shift.
Something is astir, something soundless.
a summer storm sweeps over countryside, city, and seashore. People and animals alike listen to the rrrrMMMMMMDDDDDRRRRR r R R of the thunder and the patter of the rain, and wait for the storm to end. And when it does, something very special happens.
