Spicy Hot Colors

Colors explode off the page in this energetic, jazzy picture book introducing readers to colors in English and Spanish. In a style brimming with rhythm and syncopation, Shahan introduces nine colors by interweaving images and dance steps. Ecuadoran artist Paula Barragan's computer-enhanced cut-paper illustrations capture the rhythm and vivacity of the text. This book, which Publishers Weekly called,"...a feast for the eyes and ears," received a NAPPA Gold Award. This unique award winning book was also featured on the PBS series, Between the Lions.
