This charming and delightful story is about Nate's magical, funny, and colorful adventure on his very first day of school, starting with magically changing colors and figuring it out with his pleasantly surprised mom.

This unique book not only takes young readers on a joyfully exciting adventure, but also inspires and educates them on essential life lessons and conveys a very powerful and positive message.

EXCERPT

Little Nate was very excited and looking forward to his first day of school. He woke up early in the morning and looked carefully in the big mirror in his room. 

Then he looked very carefully.

He noticed that he was a bit yellow. 

“This is so strange,” whispered Nate.

Then he called his mom. 

“Mommy, Mommy, Mommyyyyy! I look a bit yellow today, maybe because I ate too much pineapple and too many bananas last night.”

“Oh! Nate,” laughed his mom, “that is all your imagination. But that is very creative thinking, Nate.

“Now, please take a shower and get ready for school.”

My Review The World is Beautiful with Colors is a cute children's book with a good message at the end. It's a story that follows Nate, a little boy who discovers he looks a bit different when he eats different colored foods. One day he's yellow because of bananas and pineapples. One day he may be orange because of carrots or oranges. And even blackberries, milk, and a hot shower change Nate's coloring. He discovers that no matter what color he is, though, he is still beautiful and loved by his mom. And once he arrives at school, Nate realizes that people come in all colors (and shapes and sizes), and they are all beautiful too. It's a fun, silly story, but it also teaches kids (and adults) to look past color and see people for who they really are. We're all human, and skin color is just one aspect that does not define who a person is. Always a good (and important) lesson to remember. And while I did think Nate's dialogue was a little strange at times (I don't think I've ever heard a little boy say, "Wonderful, I like to walk"), the overall story itself is wonderful. Something readers of all ages can enjoy. 4 stars!
