About this book
Up in the sky, amongst the stars, there’s something you might not see – the love umbrella, protecting all children, whether they’re feeling lost, left out, sad, or scared. When things aren’t fair, when big dogs bark; a bad dream, a lost tooth, moving house – when any of these things occur, a diverse variety of parents and carers are there to make it all better.
Bright, expressive and featuring joyfully diverse illustration throughout, Under the Love Umbrella provides poetic reassurance that whatever happens, children will be protected and loved. Perfect for sharing at bedtime with cuddles.
