Review

This companion book to What's Your Favorite Animal is a charming and colorful addition to any library. Each of the fifteen artist provide a two page spread that illustrates and explains their favorite color. Readers get a glimpse of the illustrator's personality as they read each entry be they short or fill a page. The presentation is pleasing and enlightening; this book is sure to entertain readers of all ages. As a librarian it is fun to see individual artist preferences.

Carle has created this book in support of the Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art. Located in Western MA this is a wonderful day or vacation trip destination for families and professions. Public libraries, primary school media centers, classroom teachers, and art teachers will want this book included in their collections.

Overall Book Score: very good
