The Color Kittens (Golden Books Family Storytime)

Summary: The very best of Margaret Wise Brown
Review: At Last! A reissue of this outstanding book, and most importantly, with the original illustrations! This book cleverly incorporates the concept of color mixing, but the lyrical verse and captivating pictures are what made it a part of our family's fabric. (our 4 adult children are now ages 35-45 and still remember every word) I had about given up ever finding it again. Our family copy, which is well over 30 years old, has been loved to loose paged pieces. This is just in time for our newest two year old grandchild, and I am getting multiple copies, JUST us case it disappears again! Oh wonderful kittens, oh Brush and Hush!

Summary: The Color Kittens
Review: The book The Color Kittens is about these two kittens Brush and Hush together they are the color kittens. The color kittens love to make different colors, and they love to paint everything with these different colors. The lesson that this book teaches is how to identify the different colors and what colors to mix to make even more. This book is for ages two through five. The reason that this book is for ages two through five is because those are the ages that kids are learning their colors. I think the book was good because it teaches kids their different colors. I t also teaches what colors you need to mix together to make more colors. Which I think is important for kids to learn at these ages. I personally enjoyed the book when I was younger and now that I older.

Summary: Glad to find this again!
Review: 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!

Summary: A Primary Colorful Classic
Review: There is this storybook. It's the one you always want your parents to read aloud, over and over again. When you go to sleep, you want to become part of the poetry, and help the two kittens, Brush and Hush. Carelessly, and by no fault of their own, they transform the world by haphazardly dumping and mixing the colorful paints from their endless supply of cans. The pages in my old book from the 1950s are becoming brittle and yellow, but it still hold a special place on my bookshelf. The imaginative illustrations and charming story are an endearing part of my childhood. It brings back wonderful memories to this day.

Summary: Missing pages in this edition!
Review: 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.

Summary: My first favorite book
Review: This is the first book I can recall reading all by myself. "The Color Kittens" brought me such joy that thirty years later I can still feel it. The illustrations are vivid in my memory. My son is thirteen months old and loves books. I am thrilled to have found "The Color Kittens" so we can share the experience again together.
