DEDICATION

To my two grandchildren, Blake and Breonna Batchelor.

At the end of his second grade school year, Blake’s assignment was to write a book.

His story was about a rainbow, a leprechaun and a pot of gold.

That little story, born in the imagination of an eight-year old, was the inspiration for this Rainbow Road series of children’s books.

I have discovered that kids do have special powers, the power to capture the heart of an old man.

HAWAIIAN RAINBOWS

CHAPTER 1

It was a bright and sunny day when they left for the ballpark.

By the sixth inning, the clouds had rolled in and big drops of rain pelted the stadium.

Britt, Wendy, Blake and Breonna scurried under the overhang and watched the grounds crew roll out the big tarp and cover the field.

After a half hour of being crammed together with other soggy ball fans, the announcement came over the public address speakers, Due to the inclement weather conditions, the game has been cancelled.

They fell in line with the rest of the grumbling crowd and headed to their car.

By the time they reached the parking lot exit, the rain had stopped and the sun was just starting to peek through the clouds.

Sorry about the rainout, Britt said. How about we stop at a Dairy Queen for some ice cream to make up for it?

Blake and Breonna looked at each other and shook their heads.

I don’t think so, Dad, Blake said. We’d like to get home.

Are you guys sick? he asked. You’ve never turned down ice cream before.

No --- uhh --- we’re fine. We just have some things to do this afternoon.

Britt looked at Wendy, but she just shrugged her shoulders, Don’t ask me, she said.
