PS
Each spread in this boldly designed and photographed concept book reveals a square close-up on the left labeled with a color, while the same object appears within a city landscape on the right. While traditionalists may quibble that some colors seem digitally enhanced, children will undoubtedly care more about the book's clean presentation and the satisfying mix of recognizable scenes and mysterious close-ups.
