The Colour Monster Goes to School

What Colour Is Feeling Nervous About School?

The Colour Monster is off to school for the very first time — and like many children, he doesn't quite know how to feel about it. His emotions are all mixed up: a little bit yellow (happy), a little bit blue (sad), and quite a lot of something he can't name yet. But as the day unfolds, new friends appear, colours begin to settle, and the Colour Monster discovers that school might just be a wonderful place after all.

The Colour Monster Goes to School by Anna Llenas is the perfect companion for any child facing the first day nerves of a new school year. Building on the much-loved emotional vocabulary of the original The Colour Monster, this warm, beautifully illustrated picture book gives children the language and reassurance they need to face new beginnings with an open heart.
