Bestselling author Michelle Robinson wrote The World Made a Rainbow in isolation at the start of the pandemic. Motivated by a desire to help small children navigate the complex emotions caused by the 2020 lockdown, she created this beautiful picture book.
Tenderly illustrated by Emily Hamilton, this important picture book went on to help children throughout the UK at an utterly unprecedented time.
Bloomsbury – the book’s publisher – describe it as ‘a story that matters now, but will last forever‘
Let’s paint a big rainbow to put on display.
When people pass by it and see it, they’ll say .
‘All rainstorms must end, and this rainstorm will too.’
And they’ll feel a bit happier, all thanks to you.
There is much to love about this book – the happiness of family all together, the loving support so evident in both picture and text, the diversity shown, and the theme that sad times don’t last forever ― Books for Keeps
A proportion of the proceeds of The World Made a Rainbow have been donated to Save the Children UK.
