'De Colores' is a famous nursery rhyme, associated with Mexican folklore. From its lyrics, the meaning of the song is to celebrate joy over all creation and the colours it brings!
In our newest series, following the success and joy behind our Lil Libros title, Singing Cantando de Colores, it was a natural instinct to celebrate all the different ways we see and grasp love. Amor de colores will introduce your little ones to all the colourful ways we see love around us. This book will explore the colors through the theme of 'love,' perfect timing for Valentines Day, and demonstrate how colours easily associate with things we love.
Parents will adore this heartwarming read due to its ode to the beloved nursery rhyme, but also in how it will teach children some of many emblems of love according to the colours of the rainbow.
