Official synopsis Publisher
One nervous girl learns how to take something scary and make it fun, in the tradition of Thunder Cake and Everything Will Be OK.
Storms can be scary. All those CRACKS and CRASHES and RUMBLES! So, one young girl does what anyone would do—hides under the kitchen sink, of course.
Until her dad shows her there’s somewhere even better to go. Thunderland! Where the cocoa is hot, stuffed animal friends are waiting, and storms have names. By playing a game instead of running away, the booms of thunder and flashes of lightning become a whole lot less intimidating. So, the next time the rain rolls in and the sky starts to roar, she knows she can face her fears in Thunderland!
