Rudi Rainbow accidentally falls to earth and lands in a grumpy thornbush. He begs several animals to rescue him. But they are selfishly preoccupied. Then a gentle dove pulls him to safety. In the end, a rainbow appears, and Rudi is able to climb up to his home in the clouds.

Rudi Rainbow is an ideal bedtime story. It strikes a balance between scary Mr. Thornbush and reassurance at the end when Mama Rainbow tucks Rudi into bed with the last words, "Good night, Rudi."
