They Say Blue

A young child questions and examines what she sees around her, especially focusing on the colours she sees in nature and the changing seasons, to try to understand her world. This whimsical journey through the girl’s imagination would be useful as an addition to a primary classroom library, a read-aloud selection, and to stimulate creative and critical thinking skills as students ponder and reflect on their experiences and associations. The lyrical, easy-to-read text and the bold, energetic illustrations in this award-winning Canadian picture book will appeal to K-3 students.
