Cloudmaker is a fictional picture book, that encourages imagination and discussions amongst young readers about friendship, change, purpose and creation. Long ago, Cloudmaker was busy preparing for the creation of worlds. As an ancestral being he had an important job to do, to create clouds. He made sure there were enough clouds for shade, rain and light. Cloudmaker loved making clouds, but he grew sad as he realised the end of his journey was close and he had made all the clouds that were needed. He knew things would change forever. His lightness of being became heavier and heavier and he soon became so heavy he sank to the Earth. Here the birds lifted his spirits and he floated up and joined his favourite cloud and friend Cirra. He cried tears of sadness and joy and a tear landed on the tip of his wing and he created a rainbow that encircled the whole of Earth. He would live on forever in the rainbow.
