About the Book
In this classic concept book, now available in an oversized board-book edition, full-color collages illustrate a simple story of heroic mice who outwit cats and snakes, and have a lot of fun introducing colors to young readers.Book Synopsis
Perfect for fans of Lois Ehlert and Press Here, this charming picture book gently explores the world of color and celebrates the joy of creativity. One day three white mice discover three jars of paint--red, blue, and yellow. But what happens when they splash in the colors, mixing the red and blue? Or dance in the blue and yellow? This playful introduction to colors will appeal to any budding artist or curious preschooler.Review Quotes
"Walsh's cut-paper collage illustrations have bold colors and just the right simplicity for the storyline. A real charmer that's great fun as well as informative."--School Library Journal (starred review)
"Simplicity reigns in Walsh's brief tale, and a feeling of joyful discovery pervades her broad lines and expressive figures."--Publishers Weekly--

One of my favorite books for preschool but this page size is a problem. I only flipped through it once on receiving it and already the very large pages were bowing out and not closing well. I could not see the binding holding up, pages would likely start coming loose. It would be a great size to read to a group (all could see the pictures which is hard to achieve) but as a lap book it's about 2' across when open so not a kid-size lap. Takes a long reach to turn a page. Would love if they made it a more suitable size. The service was great though--came right on schedule.
Great board book of a classic

Love the size of the board book. Great colors and fun book of a classic story. Had a copy for my kids when they were small except it was a regular hardcover/paper pages book. This is much nicer for my grandson. It's a fun book!
