The Big Umbrella by Amy June Bates & Juniper Bates

"A subtle, deceptively simple book about inclusion, hospitality, and welcoming the 'other.'" —Kirkus Reviews

"A boundlessly inclusive spirit...This open-ended picture book creates a natural springboard for discussion." —Booklist

"A lovely addition to any library collection, for classroom use or for sharing at home." —School Library Journal

By the door there is an umbrella. It is big. So big that when it starts to rain, there is room for everyone underneath — no matter if you are tall, or plaid, or hairy, or however many legs you have.

A timely and timeless picture book about acceptance, co-written by illustrator Amy June Bates and her eleven-year-old daughter Juniper. Hardcover, 40 pages.
