Why Is Blue Dog Blue?: A Tale of Colors

The little girl I gave it to loved it! Beautifully produced.

My infant son and I love "Why is Blue Dog Blue?". He is just 6 months old, but he loves looking at Blue Dog, particularly the shiny cover version, and I enjoy the lively text and rich illustration.

Written and illustrated by George Rodrigues, Why Is Blue Dog Blue?: A Tale Of Colors is a bright, vividly illustrated picturebook for easy readers showcasing a wide range of colors using the image of a personable dog. From cherry red to mustard yellow and salmon pink, Why Is Blue Dog Blue? presents a brilliant color array along with very simple text for young people. A most enjoyable book for little ones, Why Is Blue Dog Blue? is highly recommended for young readers in the process of learning about colors.

This is a wonderful book! It's a surprisingly inventive and original take on colors. Children will want to read it over and over and adults will enjoy the compelling text and innovative design. The illustrations do a terrific job supporting this unique approach to looking at and thinking about color.

I found this book great for teaching young children that there is more to colors than the usual ROYGBIV.
