Colores de la Vida: Mexican Folk Art Colors in English and Spanish

Board book (Cinco Puntos Press April 11, 2017) , Bilingual Edition

“Each page captures a sense of wonder, of the vibrancy of color, the imagination of the artist, the name of the hue. Colors take life in this small picture book, perfect for small hands, in an astonishing pairing of visual intimacy and artistic joy that make this one of the most distinctive recent books on color—in English or otherwise.” —Papertigers.org

And, please, imagine the adventurous Cindy Weill traipsing from village to village in search of these wonderful artisans.
