A Raindrop Falls – the Unveiling of a Great New Surrey Book at Wotton House.

Given the appalling weather, the title of a new book A Raindrop Falls could not have been more appropriate. Written by Lucy Reynolds with illustrations by Katie Hicks it is an environment story following a raindrop that falls on Leith Hill down to the sea, exploring Surrey’s rich heritage and habitats and addressing pollution and water quality issues. The children from St Mark’s and All Saints School from Godalming were involved in the writing and drawing and were on hand to see the book unveiled which caused intense excitement as they searched for their contributions inside. They also unveiled a large poster of the raindrop’s journey standing by the side of the Tillingbourne river as the launch was held at Wotton House near Dorking.

Chair of Surrey County Council, Tim Hall, was on hand to give them each a copy and they also each received a certificate to mark their involvement in the project.
