The result is an engaging color game with many uses. Very young children will enjoy naming the pictured objects, while older readers will be drawn into exploring the colors' varying tones. A book children will come back to over and over." — Horn Book.

Editorial Reviews

On each page of this wordless picture book is a color photograph accompanied by a bar graph that displays the spectrum of colors found in the photo. Many of Hoban's carefully composed scenes show objects at eye level, and each shot has the effect of opening our eyes to the colors we see everywhere we go. A rainbow of brightness, this has all the excitement and promise of a garden catalog on a gray winter day.
