책 내용

Starred Review. Kindergarten-Grade 8—With entirely black pages and a bold white text, this is not your typical color book. Meant to be experienced with the fingers instead of the eyes, this extraordinary book allows sighted readers to experience colors the way blind people do: through the other senses. The text, in both print and Braille, presents colors through touch (yellow is \"as soft as a baby chick"s feathers\"), taste (red \"as sweet as watermelon\"), smell (\"green smells like grass that"s just been cut\"), and sound (brown \"crunches…like fall leaves\"). Faría"s distinctive illustrations present black shapes embossed on a black background for readers to feel instead of see. One page even describes a rainbow. A guide to the Braille alphabet appears at the end of the book. Fascinating, beautifully designed, and possessing broad child appeal, this book belongs on the shelves of every school or public library committed to promoting disability awareness and accessibility. A feast for the fingers. 20110929_07_01.jpg 20110929_07_02.jpg 20110929_07_03.jpg 20110929_07_04.jpg 20110929_07_05.jpg
