Media Reviews
This book is for anyone who wants to learn more about one of nature's most beautiful optical illusions! * Rachel Ignotofsky, creator of Women in Science. *
From how they're created to all the different things they can mean to people, this book beautifully shares the many ways that rainbows bring colour and light to our world. Understanding nature is the key to encouraging us to take better care of it and 'Over the Rainbow' provides all the awe and wonder we need to do just that. * Loll Kirby, author of Old Enough to Save the Planet *
Beautifully crafted with lively and colourful illustrations, this is a fun and fact-filled history of what rainbows mean to us and how they have shaped our imaginations. * Lucy Banaji illustrator of Around the World in 80 Festivals. *
