Summary
For months the sun has burned down on Lila's Kenyan village. Lila is so worried that when her grandfather whispers to her the secret of rain, she decides to go and talk to the sky herself. This work tells how Lila saves the village by telling the sky the saddest thing she knows.
Amazon.com description: Product Description:
For months, the sun has baked Lilaâs Kenyan village. Itâs too hot to gather firewood, too hot to weed the garden, even too hot to milk the cow. Without rain, the crops will fail. Lila is so worried that when her grandfather whispers to her the secret of making the rain fall, she decides to do something about it  even if it means confronting the sky itself. Lilaâs quest to save the village is beautifully told in David Conwayâs elegant, sparse prose. Jude Dalyâs color-drenched illustrations perfectly evoke both the parched landscape and vibrant village life.
