Reviews"These bold and busy titles discuss where the colors occur in nature, describe their various shades, and discuss the meaning behind popular sayings or 'fun facts' about them. Well suited to independent reading, with simple sentence structure and boxed facts that elaborate upon the photos, the books will inform and engage readers. Questions in the text ('Sometimes people say that they are feeling blue. What does this mean?') will promote further investigation. Each page in the first chapter features an item of the highlighted color plus an additional fact (e.g., 'A rose makes a beautiful gift for someone you love. Roses are often dark red'). A second chapter presents shades of the color. Surprisingly, of Blue and Red, only Blue refers to the fact that primary colors blend to create other colors. These are suitable choices for libraries and classrooms, although the alternation of cut-out and full-page photography, both in bright, patterned frames, lacks the impact of the illustrations in the 'A+ Books: Colors' series (Capstone)." --School Library Journal, "These bold and busy titles discuss where the colors occur in nature, describe their various shades, and discuss the meaning behind popular sayings or 'fun facts' about them.

After looking at the table of contents at the beginning of each of these books about color, turn the page to be immersed in the world of that color. First, the reader sees things in our world that are blue, red, and silver and gold. Color families are introduced as the reader sees various shades. The next chapter describes ways that the color is perceived, such as blue is perceived as being sad or cold. In each of the books, children show and tell how they love their favorite colors and use them in their lives. Each book ends with 'Fun Facts' and trivia that children will love to share with their friends. These will be a very bright and colorful addition to the 535 section of your collection. Bibliography. Glossary. Index. Recommended." --Library Media Connection
