Illustrated by
Catia Chien.
Some people think of blue as sad, but the little girl narrator says her blue is happy. Her mother finds yellow to be "cheery," but the little girl's yellow is "worried." This is both a celebration of colors and a book about feelings and perceptions, contrasting the ways two people see the same thing. Chien's acrylic paintings fill the pages with intense hues.
