Synopsis:

From Caldecott Medalist Uri Shulevitz comes a lyrical picture book that celebrates rain's inspiring effect on Mother Nature--and on human nature, too.

It rains! It rains all over town, pattering congenially on windowpanes and rooftops. From indoors, a child watches, listens, and feels a delicious coziness. It rains on the fields, the hills, the ponds. The streams and brooks, the rivers and seas, surge and swell exuberantly. Tomorrow there will be warm mud to play in, and puddles.

Rain Rain Rivers is an effervescent story about "the nurturing, miraculous, and temporary qualities of a rainfall" (School Library Journal).
