Inhaltsangabe

Perfect for fans of The Umbrella and Lizzy and the Cloud, this striking story from debut author-illustrator Danielle Ridolfi explores the beauty of the natural world, while also showing readers that big feelings—like a scary thunderstorm—will come and go.

With a stirring narrative and remarkable collage artwork, When the Dark Clouds Come draws on the lessons of the natural world to assure readers that, although tough times and difficult emotions may appear suddenly like a stormy sky, the sun is never far behind. Drawing on her background in clinical psychology, Danielle Ridolfi utilizes color shifts, sprawling landscapes, and lyrical text to show readers the beauty and relatability of nature.

When the Dark Clouds Come is ideal for reading aloud and is a book kids and caregivers will turn to again and again for comfort. 

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

As a child, thunderstorms frightened Danielle Ridolfi, but now she absolutely loves them. She makes illustrations that celebrate the quiet, gentle parts of the natural world as well as the fierce and booming. With her background as a clinical psychologist, she watches the ways that the moods of nature sometimes mirror our own. Where the Dark Clouds Come is Danielle’s debut picture book. She is also currently illustrating a picture book about the secret lives of plants and another about the beauty of doing nothing. She teaches illustration and children’s studies at Washington University in St. Louis and lives in St. Louis, Missouri, with her family.
