Publisher Description
The magic of mixing colors, in a joyous story by a master colorist
Zena's world lacks color, so she sets out to find some. On her walk, she first finds one primary color, then another. But red, blue, and yellow aren't enough—Zena wants more colors! Out pops an orange lion, a green frog, and a purple dragon, a combination of the colors she has seen. Zena and her friends then do some color mixing themselves, creating more colors and a bright painting using them all. Vibrant illustrations and simple text make Monica Wellington’s latest a perfect pick for budding young artists and for fans of classics such as The Color Kittens and Mouse Paint.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A roundheaded girl with a passion for color introduces primary and secondary hues in this cheerful picture book. Dressed in a polka-dotted outfit and hat, Zena and her dog race outside to seek colors, finding them (and some new friends) as they travel. After a pair of street scenes where Zena spots a yellow school bus and red fire truck, among other objects, she meets an orange lion, which is hanging out in front of the bookstore. "I am yellow and red mixed together," he tells her. "Wonderful!" she replies. "Come with us." A green frog and purple dinosaur later join the caravan, and the book closes with notes on the color wheel and color-themed projects for children. Ages 3 5.
