Story and Craft Kits: Plant a Rainbow

Join us for a unique program just for preschool and early elementary families! You'll receive a FREE copy of that month's picture book and a simple craft kit to be completed together after reading the book.

This month we will read Plant a Rainbow by Lois Ehlert.

"In this perennial classic by Caldecott Honor-winning author Lois Ehlert, little ones learn the colors of the rainbow as they watch plants grow in a beautifully vibrant garden.

Through brilliant, textured cut paper collages, the story follows the progress of a mother and daughter in their backyard as they plant bulbs, seeds, and seedlings and nurture their growth into flowers. Bold, spare text and dazzling illustrations will inspire readers to take a closer look at the natural world and start their own garden.

Celebrate summer and gardening basics while improving color recognition with Lois Ehlert's Planting a Rainbow!"
