A Color of His Own


A Color of his Own

by, Leo Lionni

The first edition of this book was printed in 1975 and continues to this day as a favorite among young children.  

Elephants are gray.  Pigs are pink.  Only the chameleon has no color of his own.  He is purple, he is yellow, he is black, and he is orange.  Read as this chameleon has an idea to remain one color forever and what unfolds in the meantime.  


A Color of his Own is a wonderful story about companionship and being comfortable in who we are.
