In our newest episode of “Turn the Page with Paige,” we hear the unique perspective from both an author and illustrator. Danielle Ridolfi is the artist behind the new release “When the Dark Clouds Come.” With simple text and striking collage artwork, the story reassures young readers that "this too, shall pass." Ridolfi says her work is also inspired by Margaret Wise Brown’s “here and now” philosophy, which encourages kids to find the extraordinary among ordinary days, just like Ridolfi did as a child after a storm.
