Big Book of Colours (Hardback)

A vivid introduction to colour, from primary colours and the colour wheel, through to the moods and meanings of different colours. Pages dedicated to each colour are packed full of shades and tones, and an acetate page shows the effects of mixing colours. Introduces the basics of art theory, and specialist words to enrich children’s vocabulary.

Review

Exquisitely illustrated, a delight to look at, it’s the sort of thing that really intrigues young children. But it’s also really informative. What it has is the correct science and at the level that’s right for its young readers – and it’s beautiful to look at. –Judges comments, Royal Society Young People’s Book Prize 2016

A board book that does exactly what it says on the tin. Except there’s a lot more to it than that… –Families South East London
