A fresh picture book of simple but surprising exploration of the art, science, and emotion of color. This mindful meditation encourages children to see the world differently.

Colors don’t exist. The sky is not blue. The grass is not green. A violet is not even violet. But color still plays an important role in our lives. Color can be a signal, as in a traffic light. It can be a call for help, like a life jacket. It can help us stand out or blend in, or feel like part of a team. Colors even affect our mood: red can make us angry, blue can make us sad, and yellow can brighten our day. Young readers will never look at color the same way again.
Elizabeth Rusch is the author of several award-winning children's nonfiction titles, including Volcano Rising and Electrical Wizard: How Nikola Tesla Lit Up the World(Candlewick). Her highly acclaimed Scientists in the Field books include the Orbis Pictus Honor book The Mighty Mars RoversEruption!, and The Next Wave(Houghton Mifflin Harcourt). View titles by Elizabeth Rusch
