Cute book and great teaching tool!
Published by WolfieGrrrl , 2 years ago
This is a very cute book for teaching kids to recognize colors and animals. Plus, there is also a section about autumn, winter, and spring that can be helpful when teaching kids to recognize the changes that happen during the year. The illustrations make me think back to the sponge stamps I used to play with when I was little, so flipping through the pages feels very comforting to me, and I love the message about finding friends you can be yourself with!
Be yourself

A great book for kids to learn colors and to learn to be themselves - you'll find friends along the way!
Adorable book!!

I got this for my son because I had read good reviews about it. Well, it is one of the best books for children. It teaches to be yourself and love yourself. The chameleon wants to be just one color, but of course it isn't possible. In the end he makes a friend with another chameleon who teaches him to accept himself. I recommend this book for all who have children. I think too many people grow up not feeling good about themselves and this book is a good teaching tool.
Terrific tale!

Join this charming chameleon on the road to discovery where he searches for a "color of his own." He learns to adapt to different "colored" environments while feeling left out, and along the way befriends a fellow chameleon and gains lasting companionship and happiness. This delightful board book captures babies attention with simple content and colorful illustrations, while teaching young children about feelings of belonging, friendship, compassion, and the most obvious - colors: green, red, gray, pink, yellow, and purple. This is a terrific tale! One-year and up.
A Charmeleon Look at Colors
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
A charming look at colors through the experience of a resourceful chameleon who tries to find his own color. The resonant blend of this fable about identity and acceptance, Leonni`s excellent sense of fun, and the simple, bold, print illustration reminds me a bit of My Many Colored Days by Dr. Seuss, a colorful book about feelings which we also enjoy.
A Color of His Own
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
As a library clerk for the past two years, I have loved this book for a long time, and it's absolutely my favorite. Aside from the fact that Lionni was a giften writer and illustrator (who will be sadly missed), I love this book because it's a story about being accepted, and learning to accept yourself. As if any of us know what color we are, literally or metaphorically. The most we can hope for is to find someone with whom we can share all our different colors.
