Did you know there once was an umbrella who was afraid of the rain? His name is Oli, and this is his story… Oli was able to overcome his fear and become a friend of the rain. Sometimes, when we run away from our fears, by coincidence, we open the door of courage.

Written and illustrated with handcrafted collages, The Umbrella who was Scared of the Rain, reminds us that when ordinary persons take small steps, they can become heroes
