BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K - OPTIONAL
AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE
This book is a translation from German. Each two page spread includes language that sounds like a letter to that particular color and a page with a collection of objects drawn in the corresponding color. There is one big item that the collage centers on.
I liked the pages that sounded like a love letter to that color, but I was confused by the pages on which the letter just stated something obvious. “Good night, Black. You are so dark.” I was also often confused by the collection of items for each color. For example, lilac includes “berry” and “wool”, but also “five” and “musical clef”.
