More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Accompanying a manuscript Dr. Seuss wrote in 1973, was a letter outlining his hopes of finding "a great color artist who will not be dominated by me." The late Dr. Seuss saw his original text about feelings and moods as part of the "first book ever to be based on beautiful illustrations and sensational color." The quest for an artist finally ended—after the manuscript languished for more than two decades—at the paint brushes of husband-and-wife team Steve Johnson and Lou Fancher whose stunning, expressive paintings reveal such striking images as a bright red horse kicking its heels, a cool and quiet green fish, a sad and lonely purple dinosaur, and an angrily howling black wolf. Using a spectrum of vibrant colors and a menagerie of animals, this unique book does for the range of human moods and emotions what Oh, the Places You'll Go! does for the human life cycle. Here is a wonderful way for parents to talk with children about their feelings. With Johnson and Fancher's atmospheric, large-scale paintings bursting off the pages, Dr. Seuss's vision is brought to life. This rare and beautiful book is bound to appeal to both the innocent young and the most sophisticated seniors.

Format:Board book
This book is the best! It's not only my daughter's favorite, but I have a copy for myself as well. It's a great way to introduce a child to the life of colours. The illustrations are gorgeous and the text is wonderful for reading aloud.

We love talking about the colors and the way that you feel on some days and that it is OK to have a purple day or a black day or even a gray day when you don't want to do anything. Because we know that there will also be pink, and orange and yellow days to follow. Sometimes, without the book, we talk about what color day we are having.

My Many Colored Days -
I feel it's a great book to help children deal with their feelings without expressly saying what the emotion is. Kids may relate better to the colors than the actual moods because they may not understand the emotion and what it means. Instead, they can relate to the actions of the book and the colors the book uses to describe the emotion.
