It is estimated that the human eye can see Ten Million Colours!
Vibrant illustrations and lyrical text present readers with 43 hues and encourage the discovery of “many millions more!”
Children learn basic colour mixing and beyond, as we explore old favourites like orange and pink, and are introduced to new ones such as marigold, vermilion, and British racing green!
This book makes a beautiful addition to any home library and a valuable resource for the early classroom.
Countless colours more, we find, when adding Black or White.
A little here, a smidgen there, to make them dark or light.
Mint turns to Jade, then Emerald, then British Racing Green,
While Ocean fades to Peacock Blue, then pale Aquamarine.
A dash of this, a drop of that- more colours being made!
Each time we try a different way, we find another shade!
Like Navy Blue and Amethyst and Lavender and Puce,
Magenta, Coral, Apricot, Banana and Chartreuse.
