This is such a beautiful children's classics. I regret not reading this when I was a child myself because I would've loved it a hundred times more. But as an adult (just turned 20 and it still feels weird to say it) I still enjoyed reading it. I loved how the book painted a vivid picture of how it was always about the journey, never the destination. And that sometimes what you're looking for is not found at the end of the rainbow, instead it is gained through experiences and chance encounters.
