The Color Kittens

The Color Kittens by Margaret Wise Brown, illustrated by Alice and Martin Provensen 1949

"Blue is the door
That takes you through into the world of the color kittens."

Hush and Brush are experts at mixing colors. Their paint buckets are lined up as far as the eye can see, and they are ready to mix up some magic, and poetry as well. Each color is represented and matched to an item that is familiar in a young child's world. The timeless artwork by the Provensen's provides excitement whether the kittens are awake or in dreamland. These pouncy kittens are wonderful guides into the world of color, and the lyrical verse will not be soon forgotten.

Appropriate for Baby-Preschool
