Discover real colors found in nature in this vibrant STEM book about animals, plants, and the world around us.
What does raspberry red look like in the wild? Can you spot turquoise in a butterfly’s wings or a shimmering stone? Colors in Nature invites children ages 6–9 on a vibrant journey through the natural world, exploring how colors appear in animals, plants, minerals, and landscapes.
With magnificent hand-painted illustrations and a playful, sensory approach, this book helps kids connect colors to the world around them—how they might feel, sound, or even taste. From the golden glow of honey to the soft pink of flower petals, each spread is a celebration of nature’s palette.

"Yellow takes yet more forms in Colors in Nature, a picture book written by Czech writers Štěpánka Sekaninová and Jana Sedláčková, who go into greater detail. Here in little paintings by Magdalena Konečná we see the finely graded yellows of things both well-known and less-celebrated: the blooms of forsythia and cowslip; the gleams of sulfur, gold and citrine; the yellows of ginger and bumblebees and dripping amber honey." —The Wall Street Journal
