Jan Brett's <i>New York Times</i> bestselling picture book <i>The Umbrella</i> has all the rollicking fun of the woodland animals that crowd into a mitten in the snow in The Mitten. Only this time it's in a lush cloud forest as one by one, tree frog, toucan, kinkajou, baby tapir, quetzal, monkey, and jaguar crowd into an open, upside down banana umbrella until a tiny hummingbird lands and they all fall out. A shortened text for toddlers and simple Spanish phrases like "<i>Hola</i>!" add to the fun of reading aloud this lively board book.
