LoveReading4Kids Says

This fascinating, brightly illustrated book opens readers’ eyes to science through colour. Dr Sheila Kanani begins by explaining what colour is, how we see it and how we see light. An experienced educator, her explanations are clear and inspiring, setting readers up for what is to come.

The chapters that follow are divided according to the colours of the rainbow, starting with red of course. Each one is filled with fascinating facts and information. Every wondered why frogs are green, or why hi-vis jackets are yellow? This book will tell you. It continues beyond the rainbow too with infrared and ultraviolet light, luminesce and fluorescence, those parts of the spectrum that are invisible to the human eye. And, of course, she answers the title question, can you get rainbows in space?

Real attention has been paid to design and layout, which match and illuminate Dr Kanani’s eye-opening text. It’s an absorbing information book, accessible and stimulating.
