The Day Ti Malice Tried to Steal The Rain

Ti Malice Steals the rain

He thought he could own the rain. The clouds had other plans. For five long weeks, no proper rain has fallen on the Haitian village of Ti Rivyè. Gardens are drying up, and families are worried. But Ti Malice has a clever idea: capture the rain in clay jars—and sell it to his neighbors! Then the jars begin to rumble. Tiny clouds escape. And Ti Malice discovers that keeping a storm under a lid is much harder than he imagined. As eleven-year-old Nadia follows the clues, Ti Malice must decide what matters most: his fortune or the village he calls home. The Day Ti Malice Tried to Steal the Rain is a humorous adventure inspired by Haitian folklore, celebrating curiosity, friendship, generosity, and the power of community
