Anandi’s Rainbow


Let us read

It was raining outside.
Anandi was fast asleep
dreaming of rainbows.
She woke up to look
out of her window.
There was a huge,
bright rainbow across a
clear blue sky.

Anandi ran out to the
garden with Milli, her
favourite cat.7 girl

Anandi loved to draw
and paint. Today, she
wanted to paint the
flowers of her garden
with the colours of the
rainbow.

She coloured one
flower with violet,
and another with
the indigo of the
rainbow. One with
the blue and leaves
with the green….
One with orange….
One with red…. rainbow

But she left the
yellow so that the
Sun may look bright
and gay.

And lo! There were
beautiful flowers all
over the garden. The
Sun was up there
shining in its yellow
glory.

colours After giving colours
to the flowers and the
Sun, the rainbow was
gone……
