Hidden Rainbow: A Springtime Book for Kids

All the colors of the rainbow are hidden in the garden, but can the
little bee find them--with help from the reader? Christie Matheson, author of the popular and
acclaimed Tap the Magic Tree,
brings a garden to life in this bright, interactive picture book about the
natural world--and our place within it.

One little bee peeks out
on a world of gray and snow.

She's looking for bright colors and needs you to help them grow.

Bees
need a healthy and colorful garden to survive. Luckily, all the colors of the
rainbow are hidden in this garden--but the bees need the reader's help to find
them. Brush off the camellia tree, tickle the tulips, and even blow a kiss to
the lilac tree. With every action and turn of the page, a flower blooms and
more bees are drawn to the feast.

to engage with the natural world. In The
Hidden Rainbow, she introduces the colors of the rainbow, counting, and the
basic ecosystem and vocabulary of a garden. Beautiful collage-and-watercolor
art captures all the bold colors of a garden throughout the seasons, and the
interactive text will captivate young readers at every story time.
