Fun even for "non-Babar" fans!

Even if you're not a Babar fan, you should seriously consider this over-sized book filled with vibrant illustrations.

And yes (as the other reviewer correctly points out) some of the suggested mixing formulas aren't likely to produce the same outcome as the book would suggest, but hey, this is Babar's Book of Color afterall... not Isaac Newton's theory of color.
