Review:
One rainy day Papa Cardinal snuggled close to his little chicks to tell them a story of long ago. He told them how birds get lively after a good rain. They all band together and fly from one end of the sky to the other. The robins flew next with their orange breast all lined up. Then came the yellow warblers, the green parrots and blue jays, but not before they squabble over who would be the first of them. And so, the story went on with indigo buntings and purple martins. All of the beautiful birds with their streaming colors filled the sky. When the sun finally appeared, all of the birds chirped and sang and gave the world a rainbow.

Readers can learn to make their own rainbows and more. Parents and teachers can use this tool to teach colors and color mixing. Simple sentence structure makes learning to read fun and easy.
