As a yellow and a pink puppet bask in the sun, allowing their paint to dry, they try to determine where they came from. But as soon as they've settled on a solution, a strange man unsettles their theory. Three-color illustrations.

A Wonderful Creation Book for Small Children,
By A Customer
This review is from: Yellow and Pink (Paperback)
This book is very easy for children under the age of 5 to understand. Yet, 10 year olds will like it too. I have been giving this book as gifts for many years. Perfect occasions are for baby showers, birthdays, Christmas and birth arrivals. The creation message is subtle yet obvious. You wonder why more people don't think creation just makes plain common sense. The Lord will speak to the parent's heart as they read this story to their children.

not just for kids,
By A Customer
This review is from: Yellow and Pink (Paperback)
I have to laugh when they say this book is for baby to preschool... this is for everyone! I can't imagine a better book to answer the timeless question : 'where did we come from?"... this book is another gem from Mr. Steig.

Excellent book,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Yellow and Pink (Paperback)
This book, in a very easy to read foremat, explains how ridiculous it is to think that the puppets were just haphazardly made by chance. It mirrors the story of creation and how just as ridiculous it is to think that human beings were just formed out of some big glob or something. It really gives credence to the idea of a master Creator. I loved the book. A great one for children and adults alike.
