We created RainbowSmart with parents and carers in mind. They aim to support you in communicating with your child to help them understand more about the world around them. Each story seeks to help them with different scenarios they may face as they grow.

Within the series of 40 storybooks, your child will discover how to be a good friend, share, and even help at home. We have also linked each story to the Early Learning Goals, which your child will explore in their educational setting.

Their ability to tackle sensitive topics carefully and thoughtfully makes our books truly exciting. From child safety to promoting healthy food choices, our stories delve into essential subjects that shape a child’s understanding of the world. Moreover, nurturing relationships is a vital aspect of life, and our books skillfully explore this theme too.
