Book Cover & Preview Text
Angie loved when it rained and rained - that way she would not have to go to school if it was a school day, to the market if it was Saturday, and sadly, to church if it was Sunday. When it rained hard she could stay home, take her shoes off and play in the grass and the water by the garden gate. But sometimes when it rained too hard, thunder would rumble and the sound was very spooky to Angie. So she would pray, “Lord, please let it rain hard but please don’t send your thunder”.
