Press Release Body = Robbie the Raindrop's First Adventure is an educational and
entertaining look at the water cycle. Leaving his cloud friends in the sky, Robbie
falls to the ground as a snowflake, and so begins his journey which he hopes will
take him to the sea. Along the way he makes friends with a snowman and has many
watery adventures, always hoping that his journey won't be cut short by evaporation
back to the sky.

About the Author: Rebecca Williams grew up in the south of England and completed her
medical studies at Cambridge and Oxford Universities. She now works as a doctor in
rural Scotland where the local countryside has inspired her to write her first
children's story.

Excerpt from the book:

"High up in the sky, in the place where raindrops, snowflakes and hailstones are
made, a raindrop called Robbie had just finished school. He was now ready to be
called up for duty, to set off on his first visit down to Earth. His mother and
father and his older brothers and sisters had told him so many stories of their
experiences down below. You see, you never quite knew when you would be called or
how long you would be down there. If you landed in a cold, wet place, you could be
down there for days, even weeks or months. However, if it was hot where you landed,
it wouldn't be long before the drying out process, evaporation, would take you back
to this place up above. 'I suppose this uncertainty makes it exciting', he thought
to himself, as he sat on a rather dark looking cloud. He began to mull over some of
the stories he had heard from older, more experienced raindrops and reckoned he was
ready for a long adventure. 'I'll be really annoyed if I land in Africa', he said
out-loud. 'I want to have lots of stories to tell people when I get back.'"
