Review
Eric Carle has compiled the answers to one question asked of fourteen authors/illustrators in this charming book. Starting with Carle himself we learn each person's favorite color and have the opportunity to view their original artwork which depicts the color. A short sentence or paragraph adds depth and humor to the visual presentation. Mainers are delighted to have Melissa Sweet’s Maine morning gray included in the book; those are the shades this reader recognizes and loves in our marine environment. Just as the hardcover edition this board book is delightful in color, design, and text. The full size picture book edition is more sensible in a library collection. Toddler interest will be limited to the colors and animals, they may miss the full content of the text.
Overall Book Score: very good
