"In this wordless picture book....Attention-grabbing color photographs float in the middle of each page, accompanied by a color graph that pictorially represents the proportions of the various colors found in each picture. The result is an engaging color game with many uses. Very young children will enjoy naming the pictured objects, while older readers will be drawn into exploring the colors' varying tones. A book children will come back to over and over." -- Horn Book.

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

In this eye-popping book, Hoban's brilliant photographs portray the world around us as a glad cascade of colors. Pictures of underwater fish, a jar of jellybeans, market scenes and party games burst with every color imaginable. Smart compositions and super-crisp reproductions take familiar objects (ducks, dogs, balloons) and events (fairground fun, roller-skating, a walk in the rain) and transform them into high drama. Hoban juxtaposes her photos with a simple color grid to highlight those hues visible in each shot; kids will enjoy matching each colorful object to the grids, searching out tints and shadings. As the book suggests, it is easy to disregard the special value of an individual color. Here, however, the reader's attention is focused, so that each highlighted color becomes something separate and worthy of notice. Ages 2-up.

From Booklist

Ages 3^-5. On each page of this wordless picture book is a color photograph accompanied by a bar graph that displays the spectrum of colors found in the photo. Many of Hoban's carefully composed scenes show objects at eye level, and each shot has the effect of opening our eyes to the colors we see everywhere we go. A rainbow of brightness, this has all the excitement and promise of a garden catalog on a gray winter day. Mary Harris Veeder

This was one of my son's favorite books from the school library. I had looked everywhere for it and could not find it and finally decided to try amazon. I was so pleasantly surprised to see it here. The price was reasonable and it was shipped quickly. Recieving this book put a huge smile on my son's face.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Colors Everywhere" Should Be, Well, Everywhere
Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2011
Even though I found this book dogged at a thrift shop, I snatched it up because Tana Hoban's photos are that good. This book contains photos of urban living, some homey objects, and images from the natural world (sunflower, peacock, fall leaves). I am so glad that the below editorial reviews explain the color bar graph thingy; I am not great at that sort of thing. Here is an example of how it works: the photo of the sunflower has the bar graph directly next to it. The bar graph reflects the amount of different colors in the photo. Thus, the sunflower bar graph contains three colors that are present in the photo (listed from the biggest bar to the smallest): a golden yellow, an army green, and a bit of tan. On some pages, however, I think that the biggest bars show the colors that most catch your eye (e.g.next to the peacock photo, the bar that is the biggest is blue- that is the color that most stands out in that photo, even though there is more green (grass) present in the photo). Neat that your child can discover new colors, compare the nuances of hues, and even find colors in photos that you did not notice were there (e.g.a small amount of light purple in the koi photo; even shadows in the photos create colors). This book is the perfect combo of pleasant, intriguing photo art with lessons in color identification.
