The Color Index

Color Index XL: More than 1,100 New Palettes with CMYK and RGB Formulas for Designers and Artists by Jim Krause is a reference book, perfect for any professional who works with coordinating color schemed.  This catalog of coordinating colors features every imaginable color including muted colors and bright colors. This is not an art book- and for the casual lay reader, the pages will look like monotonous page after page of color schemes.  For the trained artist, this is a useful tool to  determine which colors will best suit the job.  This is a niche book, relevant for professionals.  I feel a casual  artist or hobbyist may find this book too overwhelming or not as useful.  As a blogger I received a copy of this book for the purpose of writing this review.

God Bless My Family By Hannah C. Hall and Steve Whitlow Published by Thomas Nelson

God Bless My Family By Hannah C. Hall and Steve Whitlow  Published by Thomas Nelson  is a beautifully illustrated board book that children will love to have read to them.  The book features bold, bright art alongside a simple and entertaining story about a dog family.  This is a wonderful way to integrate faith in God into a bedtime story routine.  This is a story that can be read and re-read.  The board book is sturdy and will hold up to wear and tear being handled by young little hands.  This would make a great stocking stuffer gift as Christmas nears, or a great gift any time of the year.  As a blogger for Booklook I received a copy of this book for the purpose of writing this review.
