Amazon.com Review

Junior Asparagus's crayon box is open for all to see in this colorful VeggieTales book. Bob the Tomato and the rest of the gang help Junior draw crayon pictures of everything from big white fluffy clouds to the things that are yellow: "Yellow is mellow. / It's great for your Jell-O! / Or maybe the fur on a cat--" The combination of the crisp 3-D artwork and the homespun crayon drawings contrast delightfully in this kid-friendly introduction to colors. --Doug Thomas

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful teaching book, September 15, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Junior's Colors (Veggietales Series) (Hardcover)

My 2 year old LOVES this book. It's right up there with Winnie the Pooh. When she gets whiney, I ask her to go get Junior's colors & she eagerly gets it. She even asks for it while sitting in the car. It's possibly the vibrant colors & the familiarity of "the veggies". She already knows all her colors, but it is a great reinforcement in her learning.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my son's favorites!, December 29, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Junior's Colors (Veggietales Series) (Hardcover)

When I ask my 14-month-old to go get a book for Mommy to read, more often than not he comes back with Junior's Colors. I don't know what it is about the book, but when he gets to the last page ("But Bob is very RED") he just giggles! I guess a red tomato with a big grin on his face is kind of funny to a toddler. I definitely recommend all of the VeggieTales books. And, as with all Veggie books, God is subtly present. ("When God made the world, he used all sorts of colors...")

5.0 out of 5 stars Another hit from Big Idea!, September 13, 1999

My son (age 2) loves this book! And it really is helping him learn his colors! We read it over and over... he's constantly bringing me "Crayon Story" for another reading. It has the 3R's of children's books... rhythm, rhyme, and repetition, as well as humor and story. Also, it's gentle reminder that God made the world has gotten us talking about Creation in general.
