Book Cover & Preview Text
“It’s pouring Pomeranians,” Mom says, but Violet doesn't care. She finds a big puddle, bends over it and yells: “Look, Mom! There’s another one of me in there!” She giggles, then stamps her foot, and her mother gets drenched. They both laugh, then skip around, hand in hand.

About the Book
“Written in a series of snapshot, near stop-motion prose, Meri Tumanyan’s The Girl with the Purple Umbrella follows a mother and daughter on an ordinary rainy day. As the daughter explores and the mother rediscovers myriad wonders ubiquitous to a winter day, the book comments on love, relationships, and fleeting time that makes the here and now so precious.” ~Dr. Nathalie Joseph
