The Cloud Who Was Afraid to Rain

In the dreamy cloud kingdom, where the sky turns lavender, peach and gold, the littlest cloud of all has a secret: Nimbo is too scared to rain. Every time it is his turn, a tickly drop of fear sends him floating quietly away. But far below, the flower fields have wilted and small creatures are looking up, hoping and hoping. Now it is Nimbo's turn again, and everyone waits. Can the littlest cloud find the courage to let go? Read the whole story on MoonNest.
