Sara Anderson, celebrated designer and children's book author and illustrator, joyfully introduces toddlers to all her all-time favorite subject--color--from fire-engine red to grasshopper green. The innovative conceptual design features thick, sturdy, boldly colorful cardboard pages of graduated lengths, so from the first page, children will work their way through a rainbow. The very last spread, black, cleverly incorporates all the previously shown colors and whimsical images in Anderson's signature cut-paper style. A unique introduction to color for the preschool set.

Dazzling in its simplicity, exuberant in its palette, Sara Anderson's landmark board book still bursts with a freshness and energy twenty years after it was first published. It's unique graduated page design encourages the youngest child to discover the joy of color, to see the pages grow in size as the patterns of color appear. Colors shows a clarity and assurance perhaps reminiscent of the most jubilant of Matisse's cut paper collage. This is a book which is entirely in its element in a museum shop, but is most at home on the floor or a lap, being paged through, over and over, by young toddlers.
