Midas wants everything to be his favorite color--yellow! He chooses
yellow clothes, eats yellow foods, and uses only the yellow paint at his
easel. But when he impulsively paints his beloved green Dinoboo, Midas
discovers that too much of a good thing is a big mess! Joan Holub's
carefully crafted text is brought to life by Leslie Patricelli's
famously humorous illustrations. Includes a summary of the original
Midas's Wish myth at the end.
