Join us in store at Petrarch's Bookshop on Thursday 4 December at 10:30am - 12pm as we welcome Tim Hurburgh to sign copies of their new book, Why, Oh, Why? The Story of Rainbows.
'Meet Roy the Raindrop!
With his besties, Orange and Yellow,
making rainbows that shine like jello,
suddenly appearing,
and just as quickly disappearing.'
Why, Oh, Why? The Story of Rainbows includes twelve beautifully illustrated poems that explore all things rainbows. Written by Roy G. Biv (Tim Hurburgh, author of Disruptions: Tasmania in Poetry and Tall Poplars), the book sparks curiosity about the natural world and encourages engagement with science and language, with a simple activity at the end to keep young readers thinking beyond the final page.
Free event, all welcome!
