Book spotlight for Middle Grade Carousel February 2024: I Can Read a Rainbow features the book PRIMER by Jennifer Maro, Thomas Krajewski, and Gretel Lusky.

Ashley Rayburn seems to be followed by disaster. So it seems too good to be true when her new foster family turn out to be a perfect fit. Kitch Nolan is an artist like Ashley. Yuka Nolan works for the government as a geneticist, developing a colorful solution for military.

With growing pressure on her project, Yuka stashes an experimental prototype of her super-powered paint for safekeeping. But with Ashley’s penchant for trouble, it isn’t long before she’s caught red handed with the top secret technology.
