The Color Kittens
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Color Kittens (ISBN 0-307-10234-3) is a children's book by Margaret Wise Brown, illustrated by Alice and Martin Provensen published in 1949.
The story revolves around two kittens, "Hush" and "Brush," who attempt to create green paint through mixing their other paints. Their attempts, amusingly, lead to a variety of different hues--none of them green. The book's famous catch phrase is "Blue is blue, and red is red! They still need green!"
