Esther Hershenhorn

Lowell refuses to believe that a brewing storm will keep his resourceful Ozark relatives from celebrating his birthday. Five-year-old Lowell has been waiting all year for his birthday party. He is a member of a very large clan and is anticipating all the cousins, aunts, and uncles that will join his family in the big celebration. But the day threatens a rainstorm-a booming thunderstorm that is bound to cancel the party. Lowell's siblings and parents tell him not to get his hopes up as the day grows darker and darker. Just when Lowell is about to despair, all those relatives take heroic measures to travel to the party. Granny sums it up the best when she says, "Rain means nothing when it comes to one like you." This is a lovely book with charming illustrations that capture Lowell's moods perfectly.
