It is a picture book with words. A family fixes up little sailboat, there is a rainstorm, and they have a picnic. It is probably about 20 pages long, kindergarten to 2nd grade book probably, late 50’s early 60’s (pre-67 I’m pretty sure).

New format, same book stumper solving.
Is there any chance this is Robert McCloskey’s _Time of Wonder_? The cover has a family in a sailboat, there’s a huge rain and windstorm on the island, and the family goes out afterward.
Wow – ok – that was a very close idea. But no- too wordy (and actually much better). But thanks because I’m adding this to my book list of “books to get for my grandkids and other peoples kids”. What a great book. I just remember the pictures as being ‘less finished’ (more one-dimensional) and the writing was done for a first or second grade reader level. Thanks for trying though!
