About This Book
The gentle patter of raindrops fills the air as Clyde the Cloud drifts softly across the sky, tears falling like a quiet melody. Below, Seymour the Sea laps eagerly at the shore, his waves swirling with a selfish sparkle. When their worlds meet, will kindness wash over selfishness and bring a new friendship to life?
