This was one of my favorite books as a child (my copy was too worn to hand down!) and so it was a natural that I got one for my 2.5 year old. Not only does he love the story and pics but after reading a few times he began to say how color mixing works (white and red equals pink and so on). I got out the paints and sure enough, my son began mixing colors 'just like Hush and Brush (the color kittens' names). Bonus!

This is a fantastic book, make no mistake; however, the reissue with this ISBN does not include all the original pages! By mistake we ordered a larger format edition for a friend's child and there are four or five more pages, presumably from the original edition. This is pretty important when the illustrations are by the Provensens. Seek the other edition (ISBN 0307102343)for more pages and great illustrations.
Glad to find this again!

There are some books that are worth searching for high and low until you find them, and this is one of those classics. I remember this book as a child and how much I loved watching the cats mix all the colors to see what they would get in an attempt to make green. It's a fantastic way of teaching children how different color mixturess make other colors, plus it's just plain fun watching the kittens get into all kinds of trouble with their paints. Thank you very much to Golden Books for reissuing this wonderful classic that I can now share with my little one. He just loves it too!
