Explanation In Pursuance Of Books The Rainbow Goblins
* * * Read and reviewed with my niece Emma * * * The very idea of reading this book had Emma racing to finish her math and grammar homework, so that we could get to reading time. It must have sounded like a promising read, I think because of her love/hate relationship with goblins. You see, we've built forts for heroes (us) and created dark blanket caves as a lair for goblins (usually pillows). We've then made valiant sorties from the fort into the goblin lair with our Dollar Store swords and armor to take back the plastic coins stolen from us by the goblins. These adventures are epic, frightening and exciting to my niece, who loves playing this game...provided I go first into the goblin lair. So here we have a wonderfully illustrated book about a touchstone subject in my young niece's life. Add to it that this particular brand of goblin likes to drain the color from rainbows so that they might drink the procured colorful liquid, and what you have is an entirely engrossing book for this particular 7-year-old reader. The story is solid. Seven goblins go on a quest for rainbow sustenance. How will the rainbow save itself from these evil doers? It may need a little help from its friends. The real attraction to this book are the fantastic illustrations! They're absolutely captivating! We spent more time looking at the pictures than reading the book. However, the whole package put together made for a terrific reading time experience for the both of us!Rating About Books The Rainbow Goblins

My parents used to read this book to my sister and I as children. I need to find where I can get a copy to read to my own children. the illustrations are still vividly engrained in my mind. This book is a must read for kids!As a child, as an adult I feel the magic from this book.
Wow this book is listed! I don't know how we got a copy, who gave it to my husband, but I thank them from the bottom of my heart. I discovered it's magic when Jake was very young, and for some reason I've been thinking of it lately, haven't seen it for 10 years ago. I hope I still have it and didn't give it away in some mad frenzy of clean up! THis is a book to sit quietly and slowly contemplate unique and richly saturated art work. There's a story there too, rather grim like Grimm, and it all
Loved the book. Most stories these days leave out good versus bad. I love how this book defines both clearly, fun to read with your kids.
I'm a sucker for rainbows....
An interesting children's book. I've read this a few times for my kiddos since they like the idea of rainbows killing goblins. I imagine when they get older they'll realize it is really an allegory.
The story is cute and the illustrations are beautiful!
