Raggity and the Cloud

“Rains?” said Raggity in surprise: “What’s a rain?” “Don’t you know?” Now it was the Cloud’s turn to be surprised. “The best thing of all and you don’t know it. It’s when comes down from the sky.”

“A Thundercloud is a big cloud with thunder and lightning. You wouldn’t like being struck by it. You’d fly around with brown bruises all day. And a downpour is very heavy rain with bubbles in the puddles.”

“Bubbles in the puddles…” Raggity blinked in delight.

“Bouncing about…” the Cloud even swallowed some saliva.
