Beschreibung

"The science of colors is hard at work all the time--from ultraviolet light to the baby blue tint of the sky. Readers will learn tons of interesting scientific facts about color and its whys and hows--like why blood is red, how hippos keep cool, and how some animals can change color to hide from predators."--Provided by publisher.
