“Show Your Colors” by Smriti Prasadam-Halls

Illustrated by Edward Underwood

This is the Color of Fun!

This isn’t an ordinary “learn your colors book,” instead, it opens a whole new world of giggles and play.  Each color is represented by a different animal with names that rhyme such as Kitty Slink who is pink, and Seahorse Stu who is blue.

This sturdy board book is a bigger size, all the better for the colorful pages and cute illustrations to stand out.  Grins will abound if the reader uses different voices for the animals, and sounds like hisses and he-haws.

Best of all, there is a surprise at the back.  The color black is not only represented by Spider Jack, he pops out.  I had first-hand experience watching my granddaughter laugh and laugh when Jack came out.  Just make sure he doesn’t get close enough for little hands to reach out and grab him!

This much-loved book is well made, and sure to bring joy for a long time.  I highly recommend this five-plus star book for little ones through three-years-old.

Thank you, Candlewick Press, for providing Tickmenot with a complimentary copy of, “Show Your Colors,” for the purpose of review. I have not been compensated in any other manner. All opinions expressed are my own, and I was not required, or influenced, to give anything but an honest appraisal.
