ROGER THE RAIN CLOUD

Roger is a sad little cloud because he can’t find any of his friends! Will you help him find them? He loves to play games and often rains down big puddles that are perfect for jumping in to make big splashes! He loves to be held in hands little (or big) and doesn’t mind the occasional squish either!
