Colours of the Rainbow: A Multicultural Journey is an imaginative adventure that will spark your child’s curiosity for other cultures. This book uses multicultural literature, as well as colourful illustrations of well-known land marks, customs and cultural references, as a medium to explore diversity through recognizing commonalities and embracing differences.

Lucy is nervous about fitting in on her first day of school. These fears are magnified by the cultural diversity that she sees in her classmates. Fortunately, Lucy’s fears are soon quelled as she is introduced to 10 new friends, with 10 distinct backgrounds. Upon each introduction, Lucy travels with her new friend on an imaginary journey to their homeland. Through her “travels” Lucy learns fun new facts about each country and its people.
