Black and Blue
IKE'S INCREDIBLE INK by Brianne Farley. Candlewick Press, 2013.
Ike needs just the right ink. How can he possibly gather the ingredients he needs? As the inside picture belwo indicates, Ike is dedicated to finding just the perfect formula.
MY BLUE IS HAPPY by Jessica Young with illustrations by Catia Chen. Candlewick Press, 2013.
Blue does ot always mean sad. Sometimes grey is comforting. And all the other colors can have lots of meaning as our young protagonist discovers in this book that explores how we decide which colors relate to which feelings, events, etc. in our lives.
