The Colours of My Home: a portrait of Newfoundland & Labrador, by Susan Pynn

The Colours of My HomeThe Colours of My Home: a portrait of Newfoundland & Labrador, written by Susan Pynn  and illustrated by Nancy Keating, is the author's first book and the illustrator's second.  With rhyming text and a collage of illustrations each double page spread of this book is devoted to a different colour. Many of the things depicted are things that have a distinct Newfoundland connection.  The illustrations are beautiful.

The author and illustrator are sisters and have worked on at least a one other book since this one.  The other book, titled A Puppy Story,  I featured on this blog earlier.

Anna and I had a great time sharing this book together and talking about the colours and all the different things in the illustrations.
