ReviewsThis attractive, approachable book offers a variety of teachable themes, including basic art-themed storytime. -- Booklist|9781481462754|, "A young boy provides examples of his drawings to prove that he cannot draw, and chooses instead to express himself through color. "My puppies look like mush./My cars look like lumps," he says. But with color he can reveal his feelings and impressions: yellow for happy, red for angry, black for scary ... There are splashes of bright yellow and drips of "sad" blue. A rainbow of colors bursts from the boy's hand to indicate that he can have several feelings at the same time. "I'm a whole jumble of things...a colorful masterpiece," he declares as his Technicolor image fills the page. Encouraging experimentation with color ("What colors are you?") ..."

"I'm a whole jumble of things...a colorful masterpiece," he declares as his Technicolor image fills the page. Encouraging experimentation with color ("What colors are you?") ..." School LIbrary Journal, The stage is set with a child (the book does not specify gender) admitting that in his or her drawings, "puppies look like mush," "cars look like lumps," and the people...well, let's just say figure drawing is not a strong suit either. However, rather than being discouraged or intimidated by other students with greater drafting skill, the child realizes that coloring can convey just as much as, if not more than, drawing. At the beginning of the story, the main character is drawn in all shades of gray. By the end, after going through a self-portrait assignment, s/ he is shown in full color. This visual change reflects the child's creative journey, which has resulted in a heightened sense of self-awareness. Sala's illustrations demonstrate how varying color, line thickness, and intensity can indicate different emotions. (What's actually being celebrated here is more akin to abstract expressionism than simply coloring.) For children who equate drawing ability with artistic ability, this book will open new and more accessible avenues for creative expression. Lehrhaupt ends the book on the question, "What colors are you?"-- an open-ended invitation for readers to explore the color wheel and look past their own self-perceived artistic limitations., "Sala's illustrations demonstrate how varying color, line thickness, and intensity can indicate different emotions.
