Red Is Not Angry, Blue Is Not Sad
A light-hearted picture book which takes a different look at colors and emotions!
Three friends, Bear, Deer and Squirrel are having a picnic. They are waiting for their friend Fox to join them. When he turns up wearing his blue t-shirt, everyone assumes he’s sad. Fox is confused – why do they think he is sad? He feels happy. Why does blue have to be associated with sadness? And why is red linked to anger? Fox wants to be free to like and wear all different colors!
After I Love My Colorful Nails and Benj’s Doll, Luis Amavisca and Alicia Acosta are back together with this fun picture which looks at emotions without attaching them to colors.
También disponible en español. (Also available in Spanish.)
