The Cloud Collector

An Enchanting Illustrated STEM Storybook About Clouds, Weather, and Letting Go – Discovering the Wonders of the Sky for Curious Kids Ages 4–8

Luna loves the sky. The way clouds change shape, drift across the horizon, dance with the wind. When Grandpa Chen gives her a butterfly net and a glass jar, she sets out into the meadow with one big plan: collect one cloud of every kind. She meets cumulus clouds that float just out of reach, wispy cirrus painted high across the sky, and slowly learns that some things are too beautiful to keep. A picture book about wonder, attention, and the gift of letting beautiful things stay where they are.
