About this book
Deep in the woods, friends are gathering for another session at Mrs Owl’s Forest School. But what’s this? Dark clouds are looming overhead. Will their day be ruined?
Not to worry! As Mrs Owl reminds her students: “There's no such thing as bad weather – just the wrong clothes!” Once they are safely dressed in waterproofs, Mouse, Squirrel, Fox and Rabbit learn that wet weather can be exciting too. Join them as they play in puddles and have lots of muddy fun in nature.
As with the other titles in the Mrs Owl series, this book is written in consultation with a Forest School expert. The gentle story acts as a handy guide for a real outdoor activity session and encourages children to explore and enjoy all that nature has to offer – even in the rain!
With handy tips, question prompts, activity ideas and charming illustrations, this book is the perfect pre-read to prepare for a trip outside. Look out for other titles in the series for more Forest School fun!
