Pomelo Explores Color

120 pp. | Enchanted Lion | October, 2012 | Trade ISBN 978-1-59270-126-1 $16.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Benjamin Chaud. "When everything begins to seem black and white," pink elephant Pomelo reconsiders everyday objects ("the puzzling purple of eggplant") and emotions ("the hypnotizing red of love"). The art is relentlessly inventive, but children may find this lengthy, somewhat abstract Pomelo vehicle less relatable than its predecessor, Pomelo Begins to Grow.
