«Petit-Bleu et Petit-Jaune» is the children's picture book by Leo Lionni, published by L'Ecole des loisirs in hardcover (40 pages, in French).
Petit-Bleu is a small blue circle with many colorful friends, but his favorite is Petit-Jaune. One day they hug so tightly that they turn green, and their meeting gives rise to a story about friendship and the discovery of colors, told through collages of shapes and color blots.
The work was originally published in 1959 under the original title Little Blue and Little Yellow; this edition dates from 2000.
Recommended for children from two years old; a classic in nurseries and preschools for learning colors.
