What is Why? The Sciencey, Rhymey Guide to Rainbows about?
When Dad points out a beautiful rainbow, his curious daughter wants to know how it got there. He explains that sunlight and raindrops work together, but her never-ending questions lead him into colour, light, refraction, wavelengths and even photons. As the science becomes more complicated, Dad struggles to keep up with her determination to understand. Told in lively rhyme, this playful picture book explores the real science behind rainbows while celebrating curiosity, persistence and the joy of asking, “Why?”
