Summary: A hit with my kids
Review: My two-year-olds love this book. It really helped them improve their color recognition. We've changed the ending a bit - they insist singing the "Rainbow" song from Barney at the end of the book.

Summary: Beautiful Book
Review: This book completely fascinates my daugthers (4 and almost 3). They think it's wonderful that has you turn the page another bright coloured ribbon appears - and as you go through the book a rainbow is made.It's a really lovely story about a rabbit and rainbow and a lovely way to learn colours. I think it's a wonderful book to give as a gift and one that will be enjoyed for many years.

Summary: Clever & Colorful way to learn primary colors
Review: This is a very different kind of book, quite innovative in it's use of ribbons to creat a "rainbow" page by page as you read the charming little story to your youngster. The bright graphics and lovely colored ribbons make for an eye-popping experience as little ones revel in the pretty colors and see how the rainbow develops one color on top of the next. By the end of the story you magically have a glorious rainbow and your child will want to read it again and again!

Summary: ENCOURAGES CHILDREN TO BE INQUISITIVE & TO LISTEN & LEARN
Review: WHAT MAKES A RAINBOW? is a winner because it's clever, well-made, colorful, educational, beautifully illustrated and sturdy. (No, a child can't rip out the ribbons; however, don't give them any scissors! Ha.) Little Rabbit asks his mother, "What makes a rainbow?" and she tells him to ask his friends. He proceeds to ask: Ladybug/Red, Mr. Fox/Orange, Little Chick/Yellow, Mr. Grasshopper/Green, Bluebird/Blue, and Butterfly/Purple. (Where are the MRS.? Hmm.) Every page is predominantly one color and with each turn of the page, a shiny ribbon appears, each under the previous--an inventive idea! Love it. At the end, Little Rabbit's mother reappears and says, "Now you know what makes a rainbow: RAIN, COLORS--red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple and SUNSHINE!" I like the way she suggested he ask others; this shows parents that sometimes it is best to allow your child to answer his/her *own* questions instead of telling them the answers--Stimulate their Imagination and Inquisitiveness! We can learn SO MUCH from others. I love the way this concept shines throughout the story. Great job all around Schwarz, Turner and Gondek--now THIS is Teamwork! My daughter picked this out at [local store] among many wonderful books. She wouldn't let it go, she just HAD to have it. She has only done this twice; once with a stuffed kitty and the other--this book! WHAT MAKES A RAINBOW? would make a great gift! 8/10 stars....
