Little Anna Plays with Colours

By Inger and Lasse Sandberg

Anna is a little girl who likes to do things by herself. She wants to build things and she wants to decide on things. She knows how to, of course! This playful picture book offers a fun way to learn colours together with Little Anna. The pictures come from Anna’s world of knowledge where she presents familiar objects through colours: a red handbag, a green crocodile, a blue car, white clouds… Children get to learn 10 colours and enjoy Little Anna’s examples of what objects can be in what colours!
