The Little Raindrop was inspired by the author on an October morning, while he and his young boy, were waiting for the morning school bus when raindrops started to fall. The book pictures the answer to children's question "How is the rain made" in a funny, charming, and adventurous manner, while at the same time conveying the message of how valuable water is to our planet Earth but also how important and what wonderful things we can achieve with our friends if we embrace and help each other. The guest star, The Little Raindrop, starts her journey from her grey cloud up in the sky, falls to the surface of the Earth, then is carried away by the river in picturesque places, discovers new friends, plays around with bees and swans, before starting its return back to the sky in an "unexpected" way. The Little Raindrop with its accessible, dynamic, and engaging language throughout, manages to captivate its young readers, making this a story that children could share aloud with their guardians.

What happens when you turn on a tap? Or the washing machine, shower or garden hose? Water flows! Most of us use water all day, every day, without thinking about it. But how does it get to our homes? Water is one of the most amazing resources that we use in abundance and have come to rely on heavily. It is used in all sorts of household chores, leisure activities and in work and industry. From the pitter-patter of raindrops to the whoosh of water from the shower, we follow the journey from the source to the resource. We begin by looking at what water is and where it comes from, and the all-important water cycle. We then look at how water is stored and treated ready to be pumped around the country and into our homes. Finally we consider the environmental impact of our water use and what we can do to use less water in our daily lives. We also look at how people live in places that do not have a reliable water supply and methods that can be used to clean water that is in short supply. Other titles in the Source to Resource series include: From Field to Plate From Oil Rig to Petrol Pump From Sunshine to Light Bulb
