This playful rhyming picture book invites young readers to discover all the ways God’s love can be displayed through a rainbow of colors—from the author of Wonderfully, Marvelously Brown and Different Like Me.

All the colors displayed in this world that God made—
every glorious, fabulous, beautiful shade—
show how good God is and will always be.
But what is the color of love? Come and see!

God created all the colors in the world, and in each one, we can discover how great His love is for us and how we can let that love shine to others! With each turn of the page, the focus shifts to a specific color—orange, yellow, blue, green, pink, black, white, gray, brown, red, purple—and explores a different attribute and expression of love through its many shades.
All the colors displayed in this world that God made—
every glorious, fabulous, beautiful shade—
show how good God is and will always be.

But what is the color of love? Come and see!

Is love orange like a pumpkin God grows from a seed
or like monarch butterflies that munch on milkweed?

ORANGE makes me feel grateful for the things God creates,
from the people we love to the food on our plates.

Is love yellow like the sunflowers God made to stand tall
or like honeysuckle vines that crawl up a wall?

YELLOW brings me joy, like friends working together
while God grows our garden in bright sunny weather.
