Colours: An unforgettable story

By Maximo Kovak

Can you imagine living in a world without racism, without wars, without discrimination and without problems? How fantastic that would be!

In “Colours” you get the chance to see just such a world, to meet the characters who live there and to share their joy in their idyllic "World Without Colours".
You also get to see what happens when it all goes wrong and the happy beings forget who they really are.
And as we read about this magical, imaginary world and the special beings who inhabit it, we're reminded of something very important: “We are all the same, in spite of our differences”.

The book includes three sections: first we have the tale itself, with beautiful illustrations; next we have didactic tools for teachers and parents, including games and exercises for children and groups; and finally, tips on how to transform this warm-hearted and uplifting tale into a rewarding theatre performance.
The paperback edition also contains a fun colouring section for kids, allowing them to use their imagination to bring the scenes and characters from the story to life with vibrant colour.

“Colours” is not just a great tale for children, but also a very practical and educational tool for teachers and parents. It will help you to encourage cooperation, good communication and trust between the young people you live and work with, and add value to your teaching and guidance.

“Colours” is available to English readers for the first time this year.
