A day in the life of an umbrella

(Portuguese edition)

The destiny of many an umbrella is to lose its owner.

Luckily, the sense of abandonment is only ever temporary, because lost umbrellas always find a new guardian (desperate and soaked through…) who quickly return them to their mission. Something similar happened to the umbrella in this book: it was forgotten on a bus and then passed from hand to hand, discovering new owners and capabilities.

In just one day, it is used to fend off a pickpocket, stars in a circus, is turned into a boat and it even appeared in a film… which proves that an umbrella can be used for many more tasks than keeping heads dry on rainy days. And then at the end of it all, and after many twists and turns, the umbrella ends up where we least expect to find it…

A picture book which challenges readers to find, in each illustration, the elements which provide continuity from one page to the next.
