SHOPPINGBROWSE & BUY
From sauces, to baked treats and even apparel, here are some of my favourite things for you to enjoy at home.
The Magical Midnight Rainbow is a joyful and imaginative picture book that brings the colours of real food to life through a magical adventure. Created by April Jackson, mum of twins and advocate for healthy, whole-food childhoods, this story inspires children to see natural foods as exciting, magical, and full of possibility.
When bedtime ends with giggles instead of sleep, Maya and Nova are whisked away by a sparkling rainbow and a tiny fairy who invites them to “come and taste the colours.” Together, the girls journey through rainbow realms—gleaming lemon groves, leafy green jungles, shimmering beetroot forests, and mystical purple cabbage valleys—each teaching them something special about flavour, courage, curiosity, and the beauty of nature.
Blending laughter, sisterhood, sensory exploration, and vivid imagery, The Magical Midnight Rainbow is perfect for parents who want books that feel magical and meaningful.
