Blog Tour ~ The Umbrella Maker’s Son by Katrina Leno ~ Spotlight
Morning all!
A happy welcome to the Blog Tour for The Umbrella Maker’s Son by Katrina Leno! I am so excited to be part of this tour, I fell in love with that cover and then the blurb! Happy I can promote this book to my readers with a fun spotlight post!
Let’s get started!
From a critically acclaimed author comes a fantastical middle grade novel about a boy determined to prove there’s more than just the weather behind his rainy town.
Oscar Buckle lives in a city where it’s always raining. And when it isn’t raining, it’s about to rain, so the townspeople have learned to embrace it. Oscar’s father is an umbrella maker—appropriate for a place where you can’t leave home without one!—but while Buckle Umbrellas are strong, reliable, and high quality, they’re expensive . Because of this, people are buying from the competitor instead, which is threatening Oscar’s family’s business.
To make ends meet, Oscar is forced to quit school and work in his father’s shop as an apprentice. But when extraordinary events start to occur in their rainy town, Oscar becomes suspicious of their competitor. Desperate to save his town, Oscar must enlist the help of his best friend, Saige, to discover if there’s more than nature involved in their city’s weather.
