Josh had always wondered why people call rainbows lucky. One sunny day after a rain shower, he saw a vibrant rainbow and decided to find out. His journey led him to Mrs. Luna, the town librarian. She explained that when sunlight shines on raindrops, they act like tiny prisms bending the light, forming a beautiful rainbow. She also shared an old tale that leprechauns hide their gold at the end of a rainbow, hence the luck. On his way home, Josh found a shiny quarter under the rainbow. From then on, he believed in lucky rainbows.
