How to Find a Rainbow

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Reena hates rainy days. She hates the way the dark clouds make everything look so dull.

Rekha loves rainy days. She loves the way the rain makes the earth smell.

When Rekha spots a rainbow, she rushes indoors to tell her sister about it. Reena will want to paint it, for sure!

But when the sisters go outside to find it, the rainbow disappears. Where could it have gone?

A vibrantly illustrated tale about finding light even in the gloomiest of times, How to Find a Rainbow will warm your heart - and give you a handy guide to making your own rainbow, too!

"Shaha's narrative effortlessly weaves in the science of rainbows, accompanied by sumptuous pencil illustrations from Sinha. The perfect picturebook for a rainy day." - Phoebe Demeger, CLPE

"Oh this book is gorgeous! Rainbows, red pandas, and a beautiful sisterly relationship combined with a little bit of magic and science." - @books_for_little_bookworms

"An excellent book for children to follow along, whether they are reading it on their own or with you. The words and phrases are incorporated into the illustrations, it's brilliant! A book to make you smile on the rainiest days! A definite 5-star read for young children!" - Rachel Bustin
