Short and excellent to read
I love how this book teaches about mixing two colors to come up with a new color. I also love how the mice hide from the cat and uses the cat's water dish to wash the paint off of their bodies.

The most charming and fun way to teach children about primary and secondary colors
I love this book! The illustrations are delightful, the concepts are the simple basics of mixing combinations of blue, yellow and red to make green, orange and purple ( primary and secondary colors). These busy little mice can lead to many fun art projects with your children as they play with the concepts introduced in this charming little book. Children love it and you will too.

My little boy loves this book and he calls out the colours that the mice make with their feet. Even I love it and love reading it to him. Great for teaching primary and secondary colours.

Un livre très sympa pour apprendre les couleurs. Il intéresse les enfants dès 18 mois. Les dessins sont très mignons et les phrases simples. Probablement une bonne introduction à l’anglais pour les enfants non anglophones.

This is one of my favourite stories to teach children about the primary colours and how to make secondary colours. The mice are excellent teachers.
