| Suitable Age/Stage:
Once your child can name their colors, what's next? There's more to teach
them about color!
MY FIRST COLORS set will broaden a child's
idea of "yellow" "red" and
"blue" by helping them experiencing the beautiful range of
colors in each family. Children will see everyday objects for
the special color they bring to the world around them. Read
out loud the simple, alliterative text. Children will find color
accessible, fun, exciting, like an artist does!
Ms. Whitman is a former Professor of Art
Education, and her ability to involve children in the beauty of color
is apparent through her text and illustrations. Multicultural
characters.

Customer Comments
 READY FOR RED
It's hard to decide which is more charming, the text or illustrations. Ms.
Whitman's talents are apparent in both. The clear, bright colors are sure to appeal to
young children, while the fine nuances of texture will charm adults. The lilting verses
introduce children to color in their environment, using some rather unusual examples. This
is far from an ordinary read-aloud book about color. Families are likely to treasure it
for years.

BRING ON THE
BLUE
"Wonderful Illustrations. Great Book!"
- A reader from Waynesburg, Pa.
My three boys and I really enjoyed this book. They particularly were fascinated
with the pictures and all the different color blues that exist. This the second book of
Candace Whitman's that we have read and we look forward to reading many more. |
Jonathan has quite a personal
library including MY FIRST COLORS
and other Candace Whitman books.
