Umbrella Over Berlin
by Cao Wenxuan
Description
An umbrella goes to Berlin on holiday with its holder, but is left in the hotel because it doesn't rain. The person visits the Brandenburg gate, the Berlin Wall, and the Holocaust Memorial, but the poor old umbrella sees nothing. And so, on the last day of the holiday, the umbrella flies out of the window, and up into the sky above Berlin.
