Animal Colors

I bought this book for my eight month old as an introduction to colors. The colors are nice and bright. This book is intented for a preschooler. Some of the animals used to show color could have been named using their common names though. The author uses exact names like budgerigar, downy macaw, iguana, etc. I just feel like for an audience of much younger children it would be better to use names like bird and lizard. Thus the 4 stars and not 5. Good book overall. I would recommend it for parents with little children wanting to teach them color words.
