- Synopsis
- The uplifting journey of a bashful cloud ("kumo" in Japanese) who discovers the rewards of feeling seen.Kumo is a cloud whose only wish is to float unseen. When she&’s assigned cloud duty for the day, she feels overwhelmed by self-doubt and her fear of being noticed. But after learning that closing your eyes isn&’t a good solution to your troubles, Kumo pulls her fluff together and does her duties — drifting, releasing rain and providing shelter — meeting some new friends along the way and inspiring the imagination (and capturing the heart) of a small daydreamer like her. Kyo Maclear&’s sweetly humorous and lyrical parable about shyness, vividly brought to life by Nathalie Dion&’s ethereal illustrations, is an affirmation of the pleasures of community and the confidence that can arise from friendship and visibility.
