This book deals very sensitively with the issues of friendship and the value of choosing the 'right' friends. A child, Sunshine, has become dependent on one of his peers which is not healthy for him but is driven by his need to belong. When it seems his life may be ruined by this friendship, he finds a new friend Rain, who shows him how to take back control of his life. The story contains a wealth of ma-terial for discussion with children who have found themselves in this position and offers many opportunities for schools to use in Primary classrooms, as well as by parents and guardians, as a starting point for helping children to 'break free' of others, who may be adversely affecting their social health and happiness.

evidently written by someone who needs to control anyone around him, not well written, very amateurish, avoid, sometimes on lulu you find unpublished gems but this certainly isn't one of them.
"An early intervention to gang culture?"
This book, if used well at an early age, may well have lasting repecussions for children as they grow older, into adolescents, and face the problems of peer pressure and the pressure to conform...it deals beautifully with the issue of NOT going with the 'gang', of following the person with the 'most power' - it asks 'how can I make the right choice for ME?' The boy, always in trouble with the wrong friend sees how, if he makes a choice, now, to have 'good' friends, he can avoid the consequences of a future of problems and trouble.
If this book was to be used at Primary age - Key Stage1 - it could have a powerful and positive effect on our children as they grow older and ensure they stay on the right side of the law later.
Excellent.

"Sunshine and Rain"
With its easy-to-understand plot, colorful and culturally neutral illustrations, and simple yet profound message, Sunshine and Rain will particularly appeal to children ages 4-8. –Jeanne Lesinski, author of Bill Gates
