Bookroo's summary

On a rain-soaked island, the Paddling family thrives under a perpetual cloud. But when summer dries up their watery haven, they vanish, leaving an unexpected visitor stranded. As danger looms, a daring rescue unfolds, revealing a surprising twist. Can the bonds of home and friendship save the day?

From the publisher

It’s always raining on the island where the Paddlings live. But for a quirky family that loves everything and anything to do with water, that’s perfect! Once a year, though, the summer comes, the rain stops, and the Paddlings have to look for water elsewhere. Which means that they won’t be in for a surprise visitor! What happens next is an exciting story of danger and rescue.
