Dream a Rainbow by Carlotta Penn, illustrated by Joelle Avelino. PICTURE BOOK. Daydreamers Press, 2017. $12. 9780999661307
BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K - ADVISABLE
KID APPEAL: AVERAGE
A mother uses the colors of a rainbow to celebrate the love she has for her child and her wishes for that little girl.
The exuberance of the colors and love shine through the illustrations. I wanted to sing the words, and wished that I could hear the tune I could feel within the pages. This would make a great board book. I hadn’t heard the term Rainbow Baby before – it means a child born soon after another baby is lost. But whether you are celebrating a new beginning or just the gift of any child, you will feel the joy here.
