Sofia Fridlander graduated from Odessa State University, Ukraine, with a degree in economical geography. Soon after she immigrated to the USA, Sofia got married and had two children. When her children saw a rainbow for the first time, they were delighted. They drew the rainbow everywhere-especially on walls! Sofia went to the library to find age-appropriate reading material about rainbows, but found none. Her husband suggested that she write a book on the topic. She wrote a story geared toward her own children (aged four and seven) so that they could understand what a rainbow really is. Sofia's children are now grown up, living near her in San Diego, California. They are excited to see their childhood book in print.
