How to catch a cloud?

Clouds carry tiny, invisible drops of water – so small you can’t see them. In some parts of the world, where rain almost never falls, people are learning to catch those drops using giant nets, like spider webs stretched across the sky. The tiny water drops floating in the air get caught in the net, join together into bigger drops, and then into a bucket below. Clean water, caught right out of the sky!

How to catch a cloud? is a book full of drawings, stories, and discoveries about all the ways – big and small, ancient and new – that living things have learned to catch water from the air. Because water belongs to all. And sometimes, the sky is more generous than we think.
