Told with minimal text, this is a story about Zig, who takes hold of an umbrella one rainy day that takes him to a far away land. A sad, yellow bird leads Zig to a place where a monster is holding other birds captive. Zig destroys the monster with his umbrella and saves the day.

Ages 3 - 5

I enjoyed the mixture of patterns and textured drawings most of all. I also liked how Zig utilized the umbrella as a boat, a bridge, and rock climbing.

Sylvie Kantorovitz authors and illustrates this whimsical adventure. She lives in Albany, New York.

The pictures inspire creativity.
