A Mini Magic Color Book: Farm Animals (Magic Color Books)

By Louisa Sladen

Book Overview

The book is mini--but the magic is still BIG. Just like their larger counterpart, the Mini Magic Color board books feature tabs that turn the world on the page bright and beautiful. And on this pleasant trip down to the farm, young children can become familiar with both colors and animal names, all while enjoying every delightful moment. They'll see Pig, first in black and white, and then in her real pretty pink shade. Rooster changes into beautiful brown, red, and green, and Horse transforms into soft gray. Every pull of the tab will delight toddlers.

Customer Reviews

A magical experience, perfect for the toddler set!

There is indeed something magical about the mini magic color books - whenever each tab is pulled, it changes from a black and white image to one in vibrant color. My toddler is always fascinated to see this transformation, and loves to pull the tabs. A great teaching tool for color identification. I would recommend this and others in the series!

A must have for teaching animals and colors

Ignore the reading age description of 9-12 year olds--this book is for toddlers. I snatched up Baby Animals, Jungle Animals and Farm Animals in an airport store as soon as I flipped through one book. These are great for 1-3 year olds. My son still hasn't tired of the pull out animals which appear black and white on the page, but come to life in vivid colors once you pull out the tab. The animal set teaches toddlers to recognize different animals and learn about colors at the same time. A great gift for baby showers, although the babies probably won't really learn to interact with them until they are at least 1 years old.

Great book

The pullout tab is cleverly designed. All of my friends take at least 3-5 minutes (sometimes longer) to figure out how the black & white animals transform into color graphics when pulled out. It's a board book so it's sturdy, but the tabs may be completely removed if kids pull hard and you'll have to tape the edge to keep the tab in. Apart from the main characters (cow, pig, horse, rooster, carrot/corn), there are also other things to talk about in the book, e.g. apples, tree, butterfly, bird, house, sun. A great buy for the price

My son loves this book!

I got this book from my Pastor's wife, my son is 1 year old, so he's a little small for it's recommended reading age of 4-8 years. However my son just LOVES pulling the animals out to see them in their colors. He has worn this book out, it's not really meant for his age so it won't hold up to the abuse that a 1 year old can dish out. I am buying one as a backup for when he gets older.

Adorable interactive book!

I decided to try this book even though I had never heard anything about it. However my daughter (19 months old) loves it. It is very interactive and kids love that you can pull out the animal and the colors appear. I since have purchased the other mini magic color books. I took the book to nursery with children 18 months to 3 years old and all of the children loved it! I highly recommend it! It is a great price also!
