In this first story from Tillie's Tales of the Rainbow Realm, an engaging moral twist is woven into a classic-style fairytale. Why is the rainbow getting shorter Tillie discovers Hecatey the Hideous, King of the Hobgoblins is planning something no-one would ever think of doing, and the beautiful sprites who create the rainbows are counting on Tillie to stop him. Stealing the thread from the rainbow to create a dazzling magic cloak, he can suck the colour from whatever he passes; this way, he believes he'll become the most magnificent sight in all the land!
A fantastic title...With an innovative use of font and beautiful sketch-style illustrations this one is ideal for reading out loud -- Nick Black * Waterstone's (Richmond) *
