Age range 6 to 9 Dring-dring! With the distinctive sound of their bicycle bells, Chirri and Chirra are off on another whimsical adventure. In this new instalment of the beloved series, the twins brave a rainy day together. . . after all, stormy weather is no match for their boundless energy and curiosity! The pair happens upon a cafe that is only open on rainy days, and they sip tea with a side of sweet rock candy as they watch the droplets fall. They continue their journey, only to discover that the rain is now falling upside-down, their bicycles suspended on the droplets as they ride along. For these winsome twins, the world is a haven of endless discovery, of wonderful oddities, of adventure and excitement without danger - a happy scene. Because their world is one of harmony, peace, lightness, and discovery. It is a vision of what life on earth - if we gave love and respect to all humans, animals, and the natural world - might be. Kaya Doi' s illustrations, rendered in glowing coloured pencil, are warm and inviting for readers, ushering them into the pages like a safe haven from the rain outside. As is each of their adventures, this one is completely magical and full of wonder. It is also set in a world where, as if by magic (though perhaps it' s the force of the creative imagination? ), they always find what they need.
Born in Tokyo, Japan, Kaya Doi graduated with a degree in design from Tokyo Zokei University.

Since then she has created many picture books featuring her delicate color-pencil drawings. She lives in Chiba Prefecture and maintains a strong interest in environmental and animal welfare issues. Since the earthquake of 2011 she has been active in recovery and shelter efforts for abandoned pets.
