Amazon.com There's nothing like the deep, ruby red of strawberries, glistening orange of oranges, dusky blue of blueberries, and sunny yellow of bananas. In this tasty treat, Petr Horacek celebrates the lovely natural hues of six different fruits. Each right-side page, outlined in the shape of a mound of fruit, decreases in width, creating ever-growing layers of fruit on the left side, until the final page, which brings a delicious surprise. Children will delight in identifying their favorite sweet (or tart) foods while learning their colors. Very simple text ("Strawberries are red, Apples are green, Grapes are purple," etc.) allows early "readers" to follow right along as they look at the watercolor-and-crayon illustrations. And why not round out the color spectrum with Horacek's companion volume, What Is Black and White? (Ages 2 to 5) --Emilie Coulter From School Library Journal reS-In Strawberries, listeners are introduced to various fruits on double-page spreads that feature boldly hued watercolor-and-crayon artwork. "Strawberries are red./Oranges are orange." However, "Apples are green" may give some youngsters pause, as may "Grapes are purple." The final spread has a die-cut opening showing all of the fruits with the caption: "Look at all the colors in my fruit salad!" Similarly, in Black and White, listeners are told "The night is black./The snow is white." The pages become progressively smaller; on the final spread, the text reads: "The zebra is black and white" and the truncated edges form its stripes. The uncomplicated illustrations use bright energetic colors. Suitable choices for lap sharing and toddler programs.
