Description - The Day The Rains Fell by Anne Faundez
At the beginning of time, a goddess descends to Earth and finds that parts of the land are dry and the plants are wilting. The animals are thirsty. The goddess is inspired to make enormous clay pots which she pushes into the earth to collect the rainwater so the animals can drink. While she works, her daughter makes a necklace from scraps of clay. The animals show their gratitude by adding colours to its dull beads the flamingo gives its bright pink, the zebra its stripes and the ant a deep red. With beautiful watercolour illustrations and a page of information about traditional African pots and beads and activities page.
