Product Information

-A young boy provides examples of his drawings to prove that he cannot draw, and chooses instead to express himself through color. -My puppies look like mush./My cars look like lumps,- he says. But with color he can reveal his feelings and impressions: yellow for happy, red for angry, black for scary ... There are splashes of bright yellow and drips of -sad- blue. A rainbow of colors bursts from the boy's hand to indicate that he can have several feelings at the same time. -I'm a whole jumble of things...a colorful masterpiece,- he declares as his Technicolor image fills the page. Encouraging experimentation with color (-What colors are you?-) ...- School LIbrary Journal--School Library Journal -March 2017 -
