Two stylish die-cut board books that introduce the concept of colours. These two colours concept books are part of Walker's new range of concept board books that combine graphic pictures with ingeniously simple novelty devices. In this case die-cut pages reveal that strawberries are red, oranges are orange, bananas are yellow and so on. Each page has more cut off it than the one before, so that the layered images finally form a delicious-looking fruit salad (Strawberries are Red). What Is Black and White? works in a similar way, with the pages revealing that the night is black, the snow is white, the cat is black, the milk is white, and so on. But this time, the black and white pages are turned to reveal...a zebra!

Review:
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
