About this audiobook
The poignant story of a polar bear who longs to soak himself in all the colours of the rainbow.
The polar bear is bored of his white environment and his hard life. He dreams of soaking himself in all the luminous colours of the rainbow. But when his wish is granted, he realizes to his cost that his arctic camouflage no longer works and he needs the advice of others to escape his prism.

He has written over 130 books including War Horse, which was adapted for a hugely successful stage production by the National Theatre and then, in 2011, for a film directed by Steven Spielberg. Michael was Children’s Laureate from 2003 to 2005.
