The art was great, and the story was engaging and entertaining. I would share this with people of all ages as it shows how to look for the silver lining in the clouds.
Personally, I enjoyed the adventures that Milo experiences on his returning grandma's umbrella. I could imagine being a young child experiencing this on a trek to grandma's house and imagining the adventure.
I could imagine using it as a precursor to a writing assignment for a second grade class.

Fun but I've read a more entertaining version of the fortunately/unfortunately story.
