The Rainbabies



















There is a feel of rain in the air tonight. It reminds me of The Rainbabies by Laura Krauss Melmed, and of the couple that discovered a dozen shimmering drops of water, each holding a tiny baby on a moonlit night. This classic story is beautifully illustrated by Jim LaMarche and one that often slides off my shelf on a night when the moonbeams dance through the window.

For more of Jim's illustrations visit Surlalune Fairy Tales.
