The Magic School Bus books have always been great educational outlets with an entertaining twist. Through the story young readers are able to learn more about colors and rainbows. This would be a book I would keep for students who are ready to start reading chapter books but still need a little work.

Our girls adore Magic School Bus and we've read every book we can get our hands on. This is a great chapter book; it is not too long, and still has lots of pictures. It offers a compreshensive look at visible and invisible light and the color spectrum that makes up visible light.

It's an entertaining and exciting story - the author really brings the photons that make up visible light exciting. It's also a good reminder to be on time and focused, especially during a competition. We will certainly look for more of the books in this series at our local library.

It's a great book. My favorite part is when they entered and played the game.
