THE
BOY WHO LOVED COLOUR by
Subir Shukla art
Nina Sabnani
A
child's ode to colour! A
small boy loves colour. So he paints
his hair green and his
legs blue. Then he picks up his brush
and . . .?
A simple bilingual book for
beginner readers, with repetition for easy language
learning. The dramatic illustrations draw children into an
imaginative and inspiring world of colour. 24
pages, 10.5" x 8", full colour, soft
cover, for 3-6 years
This book uses a
simple, direct approach to present a basic concept.
It encourages
children to recognise forms through lines and circles
and observe them in the world around. As the two forms come together
to create various images, the narrative builds on the concept to
make
an interesting story. The arresting pictures have been inspired by
folk toys.
