The fifth book in the Gecko board book seriesillustrated by local Hawaii cartoonist Jon Murakami. In this book, geckos make a rainbow out of various tings they find in order to stop the rain. Once again, their goofy antics will amuse even the youngest reader.

Step into a fantasy world where only birds, reptiles, and insects live, and travel with a gecko named Freddy, who is more than a little determined to find out what life is about. This remarkable gecko embarks on a journey to discover why he's here, what his purpose is, and what is the true meaning of existence. Come along with Freddy, share in his adventures with other creatures and communities, and explore nature as God in his infinite wisdom created it. Along with Freddy, you'll learn new perceptions and insights about the true meaning of life and what it really means to love. Each chapter includes Freddy's conclusions, realizations about his world, and noteworthy quotes. Beneath the Rainbow Sky is a fun and enjoyable read that contrasts a gecko's thoughts and revelations with those of human beings as they travel through life.

The perfect bed time book for your smallest child who will love following these geckos' antics as they attempt to settle down for the night.

After visiting the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall with my wife in 1991 and being a student of history, I continue my interest online. I was surprised to find that among the fifty-eight-thousand-plus Vietnam veterans memorialized on that cold black granite wall in Washington, D.C., somehow twelve names of people who were still alive were among them. One day shortly after I retired, my wife, Ann, like many wives do, became annoyed at my being under her feet all day and suggested quite emphatically that I go find a hobby. So I did, hence, The Shadow of the Rainbow. Based loosely on historical facts, this is a fictitious story of a thirteenth persons name on the wall that woke up from coma one day to find he still had a chance to follow those dreams that had been so violently snatched from all the others.
