Stick with the snail as they journey through colourful surroundings, from black to the boldest colours of the rainbow!Blue like the raindrops. Green like the soft grass. Yellow like the warm sun. This is the story of how the rainbow snail came to be. It takes sun and rain to make a rainbow, and what better combination of colours could there be?The Rainbow Snail is the winner in the Toddler Book category, and Overall Winner of the Sheffield Children's Book Award 2024.
