Aisha's Colours cover

What is Aisha’s favourite colour? Is it white like delicious Es Campur ice? Blue like the ocean? Or maybe it’s all the colours, like the beautiful rainbow kites soaring in the sky?
Aisha envies her friend’s holidays in faraway places – holidays with white snow, blue swimming pools and rainbow fish. But as Aisha and her parents drive to Grandma’s house through the spectacular Indonesian countryside, Aisha opens her eyes to the wonderful colours just outside her window – white, blue, rainbow and more – and, ultimately, she realizes: being together with her family is what makes her summer special.

(A) vibrant story, with pages that ooze colour, bold, bright and a veritable rainbow of life. * Armadillo Magazine *
Appreciating what you have is an important theme of this book wherein Nabila Adani’s illustrations engulf readers in a kaleidoscope of colours as they join Aisha on her journey of discovery. * Red Reading Hub *
The author and illustrator, Nabila Adani, who is based in Jakarta, has filled this book with colour – as befits the title she’s chosen. Her vibrant illustrations often spread themselves over two full-page spreads and bleed right off the edge of the paper, drawing you into Aisha’s world. Adani has also used the colours to skilfully modulate mood and the final pages showing the family together, eating, at the end of the day is full of warmth. * The Letterpress Project *
