Every animal has a color of its own. "Parrots are green,elephants are gray, pigs are pink." But chameleons change colorwherever they go. "On lemons they are yellow. In the heather theyare purple." One chameleon is not pleased with his changeableappearance. He thinks, "If I remain on a leaf, I shall be greenforever, and so I too will have a color of my own." Of course, whathe doesn't take into account is the changes wrought by autumn, andsoon the green chameleon is yellow, then red, and then tumbled tothe ground for the long black winter night. It isn't until hebefriends another older, wiser chameleon that our hero begins tofind inner peace, even as his outer surface is transformed againand again.

作者简介
Leo Lionni, an internationally known designer, illustrator, and graphic artist, was born in Holland and lived in Italy until he came to the United States in 1939. He was the recipient of the 1984 American Institute of Graphic Arts Gold Medal and was honored posthumously in 2007 with the Society of Illustrators’ Lifetime Achievement Award. His picture books are distinguished by their enduring moral themes, graphic simplicity and brilliant use of collage, and include four Caldecott Honor Books: Inch by Inch, Frederick, Swimmy, and Alexander and the Wind-Up Mouse. Hailed as “a master of the simple fable” by the Chicago Tribune, he died in 1999 at the age of 89.
李欧·李奥尼,1910年5月出生于荷兰阿姆斯特丹,父亲是比利时犹太商人,母亲是女高音歌唱家。因家在美术馆附近,舅舅们又是建筑师、画家和艺术品收藏家,所以他从小就得以浸润在浓郁的艺术氛围之中。13岁起,他随家人辗转美国、意大利。1935年获得经济学博士学位。1945年,欧洲掀起反犹太浪潮,他们被迫举家走避美国。
李奥尼是一个才华横溢、不受拘束的艺术天才,绘画、雕刻、平面设计、印刷、陶艺、摄影......样样精通,曾任美国《财富》杂志设计主管长达10年。其间,他多次在欧洲和美国举办个人画展、设计展,并曾担任美国平面造型艺术学会主席、1953年度国际设计大会主席。1955年获美国平面造型艺术协会最佳广告制作美术指导奖、1956年获建筑联盟金牌奖。1984年获颁美国平面造型艺术学会奖时,他受到这样的评价:他通过自己的艺术创作、设计创作,对设计领域的领导和人才培养,以及通过为孩子们创作绘本,深深地影响了至少三代人。人文主义和理性主义自始至终贯穿着他的作品。
尽管李奥尼开始创作绘本时已经49岁,他却开创了一个绘本的新时代。
《纽约时报》曾不惜溢美之词给予他这样的评价“如果绘本是我们这个时代一种新的视觉艺术,李欧·李奥尼则是这种风格的大家。” 他的绘本获奖无数,其中《一寸虫》、《小黑鱼》、《田鼠阿佛》、《亚历山大和发条老鼠》分别于1961年、1964年、1968年及1970年四次荣获美国凯迪克大奖。1999年10月,这位被誉为“色彩魔术师”的绘本大师在意大利与世长辞,享年89岁。
