Arlene Alda has created several photo essays for very young readers, and this one, with its simple concept and clever presentation should sell as well as her very popular Did You Say Pears?
A clever look at colors for the very young...
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
"Which color is my favorite?" asks Alda in this gentle book filled with engaging photographs of city life. She likes most of them, with one exception: "Grey is clouds without the sun. Grey is dreary dark." Alda praises a medley of other colors "Yellow's awesome on a face. It's tempting on the street," she writes next to photos of a sidewalk chalk drawing and ice cream truck before delivering a twist ending, with a good reason to like the color after all (a pet rabbit). Alda's playfully pensive tone and lively urban scenes are reminiscent of the golden age of Sesame Street. Ages 2 5.
