Two Rainbows is an exploration of colour that works by juxtaposing how it appears in the city and then the country. A little girl finds highlights of colour in an often-grey city, whereas her farm and the wide expanses of countryside explode with luscious hues. This is a really lovely introduction to colour and also the differences of cities to rural environs. It invites children to explore both worlds with uncluttered and enticing pictures and text. Highly recommended for ages 2–5.
