"I said RED!" says the little boy out playing on the farm with his older sister. "You don't mean green? Look, here is green..." she teases. "A pickle green. A big frog green. A leaf, a tree, a green bean green."But the boy means RED. "A cherry, berry, very red."They romp through the pages, from "blue jean blue" to "yellow, bright and mellow..." and on to purples, brown, orange, pink and black...But through it all, the boy said RED! In this wonderfully unusual concept book, primary and secondary colors go first class!
