Out of all the books at the day care center I worked at, this by far was the favorite and most requested book of the kids. I don't know why, but whether the unit for the week was colors, animals, or Easter this book had to be read several times during story time and was often read just for fun. Surprisingly, none of we teachers ever tired of reading the book. The copy of the book at the center was read so many times that the back cover literally fell off. The book uses a white rabbit to illustrate how by mixing primary colors, secondary colors are made. Not only that but the book helps introduce children to "sensations" that colors can cause; for example white rabbit thinks dunking in blue will feel cool and that red is sizzling. A wonderful little book.
When I teach color mixing, my 1st graders always enjoy this book. They don't realize they are learning because they are having so much fun! The children always want to read it again!
While the simplicity of this story may lead one to believe that it is for very young children only, my elementary-aged children refer to it whenever it is time to paint at our house. White Rabbit allows a child to determine just how to mix primary colors in order to make secondary colors, with a wonderful conclusion that when you mix ALL the colors together ( and what child hasn't done that before?) you wind up with a pleasing shade of brown. After viewing a rainbow of tempra paints at the store, we were not tempted beyond the primary colors because of our story of White Rabbit.
This book is very simple, very vivid, and very sweet. The little bunny's sweet, curious personality pulls you into the book and keeps young ones turning the pages. My daughter has enjoyed this book over the past year and a half and still pulls it out to look and point at the silly "bunny".
What a great book! My three year old LOVES to see what color the bunny wil turn. I originally purchased this to review colors in a foreign language that we were learning as a family, it's been well liked by even my older children for that purpose. The pictures are adorable, and the storyline is simple, yet engaging. We are now looking for some of the others from this series.
We love Alan Baker's books. We had an old copy of White Rabbit's Color Book that was falling apart, so we bought a new copy. Lovely illustrations, sweet text. My kids have all loved having it read to them.
Seems like the author got lazy and didn't keep the format consistent. I would have preferred if after each iteration of color combo included a bath to make the book more predictable to young readers so they could guess what is going to happen next. The book isn't fun for an adult to read. My sons like the book but never request it. I have to get the book out. The illustrations are beautiful so I do appreciate the book from that point (probably the only reason the book comes out of the bookshelf).
This book is so much fun! It teaches kids their colors and what happens when you mix them. The illustrations are adorable. My children loved to have this story read to them! The packaging was poor however and the corner was bent. Unfortunate as it was a gift.
