5.0 out of 5 stars Missing pages in this edition!, January 2, 2005

By	Leggo Ami (Richmond, VA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Color Kittens (A Little Golden Book) (Hardcover)

This is a fantastic book, make no mistake; however, the reissue with this ISBN does not include all the original pages! By mistake we ordered a larger format edition for a friend's child and there are four or five more pages, presumably from the original edition. This is pretty important when the illustrations are by the Provensens. Seek the other edition (ISBN 0307102343)for more pages and great illustrations.

5.0 out of 5 stars The very best of Margaret Wise Brown, November 4, 2000

By	M. Henry "Grandma-ellen" (Bellevue, WA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Color Kittens (Family Storytime) (Hardcover)

At Last! A reissue of this outstanding book, and most importantly, with the original illustrations! This book cleverly incorporates the concept of color mixing, but the lyrical verse and captivating pictures are what made it a part of our family's fabric. (our 4 adult children are now ages 35-45 and still remember every word) I had about given up ever finding it again. Our family copy, which is well over 30 years old, has been loved to loose paged pieces. This is just in time for our newest two year old grandchild, and I am getting multiple copies, JUST us case it disappears again! Oh wonderful kittens, oh Brush and Hush!

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally!!!, April 23, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: The Color Kittens (Family Storytime) (Hardcover)

I can't believe I have finally found this wonderful book again. It was my absolute favorite as a child-I never got over those kittens! I was heartbroken not to have it for my older daughter and so pleased that I am able to get it for my second and third little girls. I am decorating their room by matting and framing the pages and will read it to them as much as they'll let me. Truly, it is a wonderful book for teaching kids about color mixing but the old fashioned illustrations are timeless and just so sweet. I am buying many copies: for us, our daughters' preschool, and to save for my granchildren-in case it ever goes away again. Why Good Night Moon and Run Away Bunny have staying power and the Color Kittens didn't is just beyond me. Buy it!
