(4) PS A nameless narrator tries to pick a favorite color, but "it's very hard to say." The strength of this concept book is photographer Alda's crisp pictures of, among other colorful images, a city block of bright-hued apartment façades, vivid red flowers, and lush green grass. Somewhat shakier is her rhyming text with a twist ending that doesn't pack much of a punch.
