Using the lyrics from the song “Over the Rainbow” featured in the classic movie “The Wizard of Oz,” this beautifully illustrated picture book follows a young girl as she follows a rainbow from her bedroom up into the heavens.

The child discovers a magical world of stars, puffy clouds and the moon. And when her short adventure is over, she is accompanied home by a flock of little bluebirds.

This beautifully designed picture book also comes with a CD featuring Judy Collins singing “Over the Rainbow” along with two other songs (“White Choral Bells” and “I See the Moon”).

The entire family will enjoy reading this book and listening to the accompanying CD. Also, anyone who collects material related to “The Wizard of Oz” will certainly want to purchase this one-of-a-kind picture book and CD.
