This book was sent to me by the publishing company in exchange for an honest review.

This is one of the books I read after the passing of Hurricane Maria here in Puerto Rico. With no water, electricity or internet I took to reading my books.
I read this one on October 12, 2017. 23 days after.

Title - Ivy and the Lonely Raincloud
By - Katie Harnett
Publication - August 15th, 2017 by Flying Eye Books      

Genre - Picture Book, Children's

Everyone loves the warm sunshine—except the lonely raincloud. No one wants to be his friend! But one day, he stumbles across a grumpy little florist . . . could she be looking for a friend too?

In this charming tale, a solitary raincloud finds a way to make a sad little girl happy again, by using the very thing that most people dislike about him—rain!

The Cover:

Although they say never judge a book by it's cover I believe the cover should represent what the book is going to be like or at least some aspect of it.

This is such a lovely cover. It has bright muted colors that aren't too loud but just perfect. The colors are just the right shade to convey the story of the girl and the raincloud.

The Story:

When a raincloud ventures away from their daily life they find a little florist that's not in the best mood and together they find mutual ground by helping each other out.

Illustrations:

Since I already talked about the cover, I'm going to give the end pages a go. They are adorable. Clouds of various grey tones with itty bitty eyes. They look like they're watercolors too which I adore. And they beautifully weave into the story brilliantly.

The illustrations are done in a variety of colors that go so well together. I love it.

Overall:

This book came at the right time. Just when I needed a good short beautiful book to read and lift my spirits up. And Ivy and The Lonely Raincloud did just that.

I wish I could say more of what I think but I left my book at home and am currently using the universities computers since my home still doesn't have any energy.
