Editorial Reviews

Review

'instantly engage the child from the very beginning. Unlike other books for children they take absolutely no time at all to grasp the child's attention as the die cuts, bright colours and other mechanisms magically enthral the child almost the second the child reaches for the book. ... delightful ... it is clear to see that they go far beyond the realms of everyday books; enlightening, inspiring and exciting children by clever twists in each book. They are very competitively priced and sure to be a winner with all small children.'
Family Fun Guide on Hervé Tullet's Lets Play Games Series

Hervé's work is a sumptuous visual assault to the eyes, a stylised celebration of colour, of pattern, of textures - and a few, but not too many, well-chosen words. ... the brevity of text is precisely what brings the books to life. They are designed to encourage lively interaction, to prompt the readers to tell their own stories and, most importantly, for parents and children to share and enjoy a mutual experience. ... The series of six Let's Play Games! books focuses on the theme of playful discovery, with a mix of textures, flaps and cut-outs in a chunky boardbook format that will sustain a good degree of robust manhandling from toddlers. ... [Tullet's] style has distinct echoes of modern art from the likes of Picasso, Dali and Matisse.'

Ok color mixing story

Ok color mixing story
A simple book of coloring mixing. I think it would be a cute follow up to Mouse Paint when teaching primary colors to kids. However the whole book is 7 pages, and as the other reviewer said there is not much of a story. The book starts off promising but ends abruptly. Just not enough there to really engage kids. As an art teacher I can use this book, but I wouldn't purchase it otherwise.

    The book clearly describes how the three primary colors can be mixed to create the secondary colors. The book has worked well to substantiate my granddaughter's experiments with mixing paint colors.

    I teach K-6 and am using this book to help my K students learn about color mixing. The book is fine for this and the story's simplicity is okay for the age range. There just is not a lot of story there.
