In English and Mandarin Chinese, Belle Yang's bilingual board books celebrate the natural world with simple concepts and beautiful, bold illustrations.

It's summer, and the meadow is in full bloom. As some bunnies hop along, they see blue sky, white clouds, and yummy green grass. How many more colors can be found? Look for an explanation of tonal marks at the end of the story, along with pinyin translation of the Chinese characters.

Reviews for Summertime Rainbow: A Bilingual Book of Colors (Chinese Traditional/English)

A delectable ode to springtime... Happiest may be the child readers themselves who will relish the delicate gouache illustrations and the sensorial lushness of spring. —The New York Times Three pudgy gouache rabbits explore the colorful marvels of spring in this bilingual book with words in English and Mandarin Chinese characters. Loosely outlined in black, the rabbits have a simple elegance that echoes the mood of quiet observation. —Publishers Weekly Outstanding. —Kirkus Reviews Children's Book blog
