We have been reading Lila and the Secret of Rain.
When it starts to rain the whole village celebrates with music and dancing.
Write a poem to celebrate the coming of the rain. Use a repeating pattern and the words and pictures in the book to help you write your poem.
Your poem might start like this:
Thank you for the rain
It feels like kisses on our cheeks
