The perfect mix of adventure and peril, Laura has created the most sublime and wondrous world which she brings to life through her marvellous illustrations. Book Lover Jo, school librarian and book blogger Amid all this action – and the farting-cloud-cat silliness you’d expect from the creator of the bestselling Amelia Fang books – is a book that lets in quieter moments too, and really focuses on the friendship between Ray and her pals Snowden and Droplett. Indeed, the end message is very much about how love, hope and togetherness will always triumph and give a person a strength they didn’t think they had. Young Weatherlings are bonded to a cloud -creature that emerge from Puff Pods. These become their lifelong companions. Rainbow’s is Nim, the delightful cat cloud while her Dad has a whale-shaped cloud named Waldo.Nachdem ich Rias erstes Abenteuer so geliebt habe, habe ich mir von ihrem zweiten natürlich sehr viel erhofft und was soll ich sagen, meine Erwartungen konnten komplett erfüllt werden! Laura Ellen Anderson hat mal wieder etwas Bezauberndes aufs Papier gebracht, ein rundum gelungenes Kinderbuch, das wie sein Vorgänger ist: Aufregend, lustig, warmherzig und voller Kreativität, Magie und Überraschungen. Die Charaktere sind ebenfalls wieder wunderbar getroffen und werden so liebevoll beschrieben, dass man sie einfach gernhaben muss, vor allem die sympathische und tapfere Ria schleicht sich sofort in das Leserherz. Aber auch ihr niedlicher, explosiver und fluffig-flauschiger Wolkenkater Nim und ihre besten Freunde Minus Permafrost und Nasstaja Niederschlag sind ganz besonders zauberhafte Figuren. Es macht erneut so viel Spaß sie zu begleiten, Langeweile kommt dabei an keiner Stelle auf. Man fiebert, fühlt und bibbert mit den Kindern mit und ihre innige Freundschaft erwärmt einem so richtig das Herz. Freundschaft und Zusammenhalt wird auch diesmal ganz groß geschrieben und auch der Glaube an sich selbst, Mut, Güte und Entschlossenheit sind unter anderem wichtige Bestandteile der Geschichte. I love that Ray had such wonderful friends and that they never gave up on her, kept on believing her. They were wonderful. Though Droplett should learn not to splash everyone, I just felt for their other friend and his constant soggy (almost want to put a GIF from Mary Berry here) sandwich. I did love that competition she was captain of though, that seems like such a cool thing to do and I wish I had weather magic! Laura Ellen Anderson must be one of the brightest rainbows in kidlit. Rainbow Grey is bursting with colour, kindness and heart - just like her creator. An utter joy from start to finish. A lively story with a fully imagined alternative world, an entertaining collection of characters and a brave heroine.
