It's Anastasia Pickering's birthday and that means a dog is in the forecast!—as well as a lesson on patience and trust.

Anastasia's Rain, a book of magical proportions, not only teaches children the value of a positive attitude and the virtue of patience, it also teaches the importance of listening to the guidance of one's fairy/inner wisdom. Children ages four to nine will marvel at the magical raindrops that appear each time Anastasia finds herself in a pickle, and they'll cheer her on as she resolves the problem by listening to the sage advice of Patience, her ponytail-riding fairy. This book, along with its beautiful artwork, is a teaching tool in values and life lessons that every parent will appreciate!
