Author: Dockrill, Laura

Condition: New

Poetic words, evocative art, and die-cuts throughout combine to explore a childs moods through color-or the lack of color-and offer a reassuring message of love and acceptance.Today I feel gray.But thats OK.Some days you may feel sunshine yellow or orange-balloon bright. Other days youre gray, or even night-sky black-like a dark scribble on a page, a storm in the clouds, or a puddle in the road. Gray is when you dont feel like yourself, or like you dont belong. But however you feel, there are big hugs (red) and loving lullabies (blue) waiting, and even the grayest sidewalk is a canvas for you to fill with the colors you choose. A tender narration from British spoken-word poet Laura Dockrill and subtle, spare artwork from former UK Childrens Laureate Lauren Child offer a comforting read for young children that addresses feelings of sadness and assures them that they are never alone.
