Información de la editorial

What is orange? What is pink? What is white? Since its original publication in 1961, "Hailstones and Halibut Bones," Mary O'Neill's renowned work of poetry about the colors of the spectrum, has become a modern children's classic. In 12 vivid poems, O'Neill explores and celebrates colors, showing how each one can be heard, touched, smelled, and seen.
John Wallner's lavish illustrations, added to the book upon its reissue in 1989, perfectly complement O'Neill's rich, rhythmic language. Children, parents, educators, and librarians continue to be engaged by this book, a true adventure in poetry and color. Mary O'Neill's "Hailstones and Halibut Bones "was published in 1961, becoming an instant classic.
John Wallner is the award-winning illustrator of more than 30 books for children.""
