With lyrical text and comforting illustrations, Stay Through the Storm is a deeply moving meditation on the power of friendship to carry us through difficult times.
When dark clouds gather in the distance, two friends come together to comfort each other through the storm. They shield each other through the rain, make a fort inside, and play games between claps of thunder. Through it all, they come back to a consistent plea: Stay. Stay through the storm.
A story to bring hope in times of trouble, Stay Through the Storm is a moving reminder that we're never alone even when things seem darkest.

Review
Stay Through the Storm is a lovely book about the power of friendship and togetherness, especially when times are difficult. On the literal level, it gives young readers ways to cope with the storm outside, while using the storm as a metaphor for tumultuous times that people may endure. And the illustrations are warm, inviting, and so very charming! Rowland has a way of making difficult topics digestible for young readers. --JaNay Brown-Wood, author of Imani's Moon
