My Little Book of Colours
These titles with their sensitive and interesting pictures create much to discuss. The counting book has the unusual idea of showing a child on its birthdays from one to ten, with a party theme for each. Small children sometimes learn their colours by noticing that different objects can be the same colour. The colours book shows one child getting dressed from his vest and pants to his thick outdoor clothes... on each opposite page is another object of the same colour. Shrewd stuff.
