My Blue Is Happy -- Jessica Young

<b>What is your blue like? A lyrical ode to colors -- and the unique ways we experience them -- follows a little girl as she explores the world with her family and friends.</b> <p/>Your neighbor says red is angry like a dragon's breath, but you think it's brave like a fire truck. Or maybe your best friend likes pink because it's pretty like a ballerina's tutu, but you find it annoying -- like a piece of gum stuck on your shoe. In a subtle, child-friendly narrative, art teacher and debut author Jessica Young suggests that colors may evoke as many emotions as there are people to look at them -- and opens up infinite possibilities for seeing the world in a wonderful new way.<br><br><b>Author:</b> Jessica Young<br><b>Publisher:</b> Candlewick Press (MA)<br><b>Published:</b> 08/06/2013<br><b>Pages:</b> 32<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Hardcover<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.88lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 10.10h x 9.10w x 0.40d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780763651251<br><b>Audience:</b> Ages 4-8<br><br><b>Accelerated Reader:</b><br><b>Reading Level:</b> 2.2<br><b>Point Value:</b> 0.5<br><b>Interest Level:</b> Lower Grade<br><b>Quiz #/Name: </b>160745 / My Blue Is Happy<br><br><b>Award:</b> Texas 2x2 Reading List - Recommended<br><b>Award:</b> Charlotte Zolotow Award - Highly Commended<br><br><b>Review Citation(s): </b><br><i>Publishers Weekly</i> 06/10/2013<br><i>Kirkus Reviews</i> 06/15/2013<br><i>School Library Journal</i> 07/01/2013 pg. 75<br><i>Bulletin of Ctr for Child Bks</i> 10/01/2013 pg. 126<br><i>Horn Boo
