by Ellen Tarlow (Author), Julien Chung (Illustrator)
A clever and moving picture book about finding out what it means to be yourself--in this case, what it means to be Blue!
Blue wants to be Red. Red is exciting and funny and fascinating. She gets to fight fires and swing from trees and tell cars to STOP. But it turns out trying to be Red isn't as fun, or as easy, as Blue thought it would be. What might happen if instead of trying to be like Red, Blue tried to just be Blue? Come along with Blue on his journey to self-discovery, self-acceptance, and self-love.Author Biography
