Summary: What a marvelous book!
Review: Well written and exciting. Excellent for young and old. A great example of the empowering adventures of a young girl. Shelby faces challenges with determination, honesty and integrity. She restores our faith in how special each our journeys are, even in the face of adverse situations. The stereotypes play a wonderful role in what she chooses and how judgement of herself and others creates hurt and confusion. I was touched by the way Valita Vinson has expounded on the dilemma of living a life of truth and integrity in the face of social lies and judgement. The magical touch brings lightness and delight at every turn.

Review: What a delight! A book for women of all ages. Shelby goes on a quest to discover the giver of the magical umbrella, and on the journey discovers herself. Creative, and enjoyable, this wonderful tale is one you could read over and over. My favorite part was when Shelby goes to the home of a new friend and discovers a sense of belonging she's never felt before. My daughter loved the little rain jellies and their bouncing joyful life. Treat yourself to this well written tale!
