This book was great fun! My two oldest children love the show and the books. This book was picked by my son but both he and my daughter loved it. The story follows closely one of the stories in an episode. It is fun watching the interactions between Max and Ruby, as Ruby tries to get them to do a painting for Grandma's visit and Max keeps trying to head outside. Join in the fun.

My daughter likes to read a book or two at the library while we are there picking out books to bring home. Yesterday she chose this one.

It was a cute book focusing on the colors of the rainbow. My daughter is 2 and has really been learning her colors so this book was create to reinforce those colors she knows. I liked that at the end of the book Ruby and her brother Max got to see a real rainbow as well.

It was a cute book.
