seven stunning floral arrangements, with a flower key at the back
of the book, and clever gatefolds as well as search-and-find
prompts for interactivity, fold-out pages open to reveal beautiful
arrangements of flowers, in a variety of hues, organised in

shades found between familiar colours - and showing how colours
connect to one another. This, the debut children's book by New

Renoir's Colors helps children identify and explore colors through
eight kid-friendly paintings by the great Impressionist master. Its
engaging interactive format invites the reader to open a flap and
see a beautiful color detail of one of Renoir's works and then to
turn the page to see the full painting from which the detail is
drawn.
Young readers will learn that each color exists in a variety of
shades. Yellow can be the color of a man's straw hat or the light
of summer shining through the trees. Blue can be bright like the
stripes in a woman's dress or rich and deep like a man's suit or
dark like the shadows that dance on the ground. This charming book
will offer children a wonderful first experience with art,
encouraging them to look closely at visual images as well as to see
the variety of colors in the world around them. Ages three and up.
A gray day turns into a kaleidoscope of fun in this marvelously
offbeat and stimulating journey through the world of color. One
winter morning, Otto the cat looks out the window and sighs, "Why
is everything so gray today?" Luckily his friend Leon the chameleon
is around to show him just how many colors there are in the world.
In these exciting and funny spreads filled to the brim with
brilliantly illustrated objects, Leon and Otto identify people,
places, and things of every hue. On pages dedicated to infinite
shades of a single color, Tom Schamp's brilliant drawings play with
perspective and unexpected pairings. An enormous Bengal tiger lords
over an orange-tinted world, while a giant blue whale dwarfs
elephants, pairs of jeans, and police officers. Throughout,
cleverly inserted puns and allusions will elicit plenty of laughs
from parents and children alike. Parents will enjoy the numerous
ways color is depicted and kids will spend hours looking for their
friends Otto and Leon as they traverse the busy pages. Best of all,
this delightful adventure comes to a perfect end when all the
colors come together in one beautiful, joyful rainbow of fun.

"Crayons have feelings, too, in this funny back-to-school story
illustrated by the creator of Stuck and This Moose Belongs to Me --
now a #1 New York Times bestseller "
Poor Duncan just wants to color. But when he opens his box of
crayons, he finds only letters, all saying the same thing: His
crayons have had enough They quit Beige Crayon is tired of playing
second fiddle to Brown Crayon. Black wants to be used for more than
just outlining. Blue needs a break from coloring all those bodies
of water. And Orange and Yellow are no longer speaking--each
believes he is the true color of the sun.
What can Duncan possibly do to appease all of the crayons and get
them back to doing what they do best? Kids will be imagining their
own humorous conversations with crayons and coloring a blue streak
after sharing laughs with Drew Daywalt and "New York Times
"bestseller Oliver Jeffers. This story is perfect as a
back-to-school gift, for all budding artists, for fans of humorous
books such as "Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus "by Mo Willems
and "The True Story of the Three Little Pigs "by Jon Sciezka and
Lane Smith, and for fans of Oliver Jeffers' "Stuck, The Incredible
Book Eating Boy, Lost and Found, "and" This Moose Belongs to
Me."
'Wishy Washy' takes your young child on an adventure as they learn
new words through life-like paintings, bright colours and an animal
friend who guides them along the way. This book is more dynamic
than other basic first-words or colour books because its pictures
and words were strategically chosen to start with early developing
phonemes (b,p,m,d,t) and to teach your child words they can easily
say or approximate at a very young age (nine months to two years
old) like 'puppy' vs 'elephant'. 'Wishy Washy' also provides tips
for parents to help them encourage verbal approximations
(acceptable substitutes). Plus, this engaging book comes with an
attached wooden paintbrush and faux paint palette - a tactile,
interactive tool that will provide your child with multi-sensory
learning and help them better retain the information on each page.
