My Blue is Happy by Jessica Young

Young, Jessica. My Blue is Happy. Somerville: Candlewick Press, 2013. 32p.

A young narrator shares her family members' thoughts about various colors and contrasts them with her own. While her sister's blue is "sad like a lonely song," the narrator's blue is "happy, like favorite jeans and a splash in the pool on a hot day." This is a wonderful book for inspiring creative, descriptive writing or for exploring colors and their effects in art classes.
