The rain has stopped, a girl and her favorite toys go outside to play. She looks into a mud puddle, and sees Mudkin, a friendly--if a little muddy creature. He gives her a robe, crown, and carriage, and takes her away to a castle where she becomes queen of the realm. The kingdom only lasts until the next rain, but it's fun while it lasts. Written and illustrated by Stephen Gammel, in his easily recognizable style, it is a tribute to mud and imagination -- two key elements of a happy childhood.
