The Wall (Reading Rainbow Books)
Eve Bunting
Clarion Books, 1992
Excellent book
I read this book to my students. But before I had read it myself, I shared it with my students. It was very emotional for me. (I have a cousin listed on the wall. His son was born about 4 months after he died. I could see my uncle walking his grandson there.) The ...

Fireflies (Reading Rainbow)
Aladdin, 1986
A child's view of fireflies.
Nothing can match the wonder of a night filled with tiny lights of the firefly. This book takes me back to the child's delight in catching them, trying to make the wonder last. But, I, too, let them go in the end. Pass it on.

Me and my 2.5 year old son love this book
This is a great book for kids, even young ones around 2.5 years old. It's an engaging story and my son loves the part where the man wakes up to find his hats gone, and looks up and sees all the monkeys wearing the hats! He asks me to read it everynight, and remembers ...

When I Was Young in the Mountains (Reading Rainbow Books)
Cynthia Rylant
Puffin, 1993
LOVE THIS LITTLE BOOK.
This work is rather realistic. For anyone who grew up in similiar surroundings, it brings on waves of nostalgia. Growing up in the Ozark Mountains was quite similar to the setting of this story. These were simpler times, for good and bad, and it is good that we have ...

Rainbows End
Vernor Vinge
Tor Science Fiction, 2007
Rainbow's End review
Read a great review on "Rainbow's End" in the New York Times. Just finished reading the book. This is one of the best written, and absolutely the most original book I've ever read on how humanity will deal with technology in the future.

Unweaving the Rainbow: Science, Delusion and the Appetite for Wonder
Richard Dawkins
Mariner Books, 2000
Inspiring
Unweaving The Rainbow is not only a great science book for a casual reader, but it is also very inspiring because Dawkins' writing shows science and the natural world in a light that fills the reader with awe and wonder. Very well done and pleasant to read.

Fantastic Series
My daughter loves this series of books - the biggest problem we have is that she won't stop after one chapter. She's 5, so we're reading them to her now, but soon she'll be re-reading them herself. We started with book 1 of the Rainbow Fairies and are now on the ...
