The author/​photographer has tak­en a close look at Israel and has focused on the many vibrant col­ors found in the cities, towns, beach­es and just about every­where. Each page is devot­ed to a par­tic­u­lar col­or and fea­tures sev­er­al beau­ti­ful pho­tographs, with the name of the high­light­ed col­or print­ed in Eng­lish, Hebrew and translit­er­a­tion and shows sev­er­al Israeli sites with which chil­dren can become famil­iar. This is a sim­ple, fun way for young chil­dren to learn some Hebrew vocab­u­lary and begin to iden­ti­fy with Israel.

Rec­om­mend­ed for ages 2 – 8.
