Product Description

Little Maya longs to find brilliant, beautiful, inspiring color in her world.…but Maya’s world, the Mojave Desert, seems to be filled with nothing but sand. With the help of a feathered friend, she searches everywhere to discover color in her world. In the brilliant purple of her mother's flowers, the cool green of a cactus, the hot pink sunset, and the shiny black of Papi's hair, Maya finally finds what she was looking for. The book’s appealing narrative and bold illustrations encourage early readers to observe and explore, and to discover the colors in their own

Recommended for bilingual library and personal picturebook collections.5
The very first children's book that artist Maya Christina Gonzalez has written as well as illustrated, My Colors, My World / Mis Colores, Mi Mundo is a bilingual English/Spanish picturebook about a girl who lives in the desert, and her search to discover colors of every hue. "Of all the colors I find, I like hot pink the best. It's the color of the desert sunset." The gently stylized illustrations make superb use of color to blend perfectly with the rhythmic text. Recommended for bilingual library and personal picturebook collections.

Wonderful Book for Preschool5
This charming title is my new favorite Latino children's picturebook. Vibrant, expressive illustrations and bilingual text introduce young children to colors in both Spanish and English while encouraging children to see the beauty in the world around them. The author/illustrator never saw herself in her picturebooks as a child and has now created one that positively represents Latino children! Fantastic!
