This book is a favorite at our house! The durable book has one large, colorful photograph of a common item on each page. The item's name and color are printed at the bottom (yellow shoe, red clock, black cat, etc.). It's easy for little hands to turn the pages as well as focus on each page. So many children's books these days seem to have TOO much information on each page. This book finds a way to attract the reader in a simple way with its beautiful photographs.

My daughter really enjoys this book. It is simple and gives toddlers a chance to learn their colors. We've read it so many times my daughter who is two can now read it herself!

As my son grew older and more interested in colors, I looked for a book that would delight him as much as "Black on White" (also by Tana Hoban) had when he was an infant. I thought this book would fill that description, but it didn't quite fit the bill. It has great photographs, but no text.Despite the catchy, rhyming title, each page shows only a picture of the item: No rhyming text is involved. Although my son likes the brightly colored pictures, he is more interested when I read books with rhythmic texts, such as "Blue Hat, Green Hat" by Sandra Boynton.

So many books nowadays drown the child in information, pictures, characters, action....This one is so refreshingly simple. According to my boy, everything is blue, so I am hoping this book will help him distinguish the various colors. Love all books from Tana Hoban. The black and white infant books are also great, and my boy still picks them up every now and then, even though he is now 21 months.

We have six children, and this is/was the hands-down favorite of all our children as toddlers. We received it as a gift when our 13 yo was a baby, and now our toddler twins are enjoying it. I believe our children learned their color names from this book. They also like Hoban's "Black on White." I wouldn't hesitate to buy this for any under 2's you might have.

I love Tana Hoban so when I found she did colored images I was very excited. The photos are nice, crisp and right on target with the colors. Simple color learning book.

We bought several books when my daughter was born, including several black and white titles. When she was about two months old, this one became her favorite. She's almost 5 months old now, and has a wider range of interests, but still enjoys this.I really like how the colors are presented as flat, one tone representations in the letters of the word of the color and in a small dot on the page, as well as a photograph. I'd imagine that looking at all the different variations a color can experience on a single object in real life will give babies a better sense of the concept.

My 1-1/2 year old daughter loves this book. She is learning her colors. There are eight pictures with one color including a red clock, blue mitten, yellow show, purple flower, an orange, green leaf, brown bear and black cat. The color is spelled out at the bottom of each page. So many of the books teaching colors have too many items on a page. I think this one is wonderful for young toddlers. It's great for the bath too.
