Synopsis
Paintings of Blue Dog in many different colors, including salmon, cherry, and moss green, explain why Blue Dog had to be blue., Discover how artists select and use color to enhance their art in George Rodrigue and Bruce Goldstone's picture book Why Is Blue Dog Blue? For years Blue Dog's bold blueness has captivated adults. Now children get to join in the fun when they open this vibrant book, which finally answers the question we've all wondered about since we first met Blue Dog's riveting stare: Why Is Blue Dog Blue? Blue Dog's creator, George Rodrigue, takes readers on a playful tour of his unique color world. In it, he combines preposterous puns with all-new whimsical Blue Dog silkscreens to go where other color guides are too yellow-bellied to tread. Readers of all ages will giggle as Blue Dog changes color from red or green to auburn or chartreuse. Along the way, readers learn a lot about colors and their names, from basic primary and secondary colors to the exotic ones most color primers ignore completely. But more importantly, this book is a fun-filled demonstration of how artists use color to enrich their art. Children and adults alike will be surprised by this imaginative and expansive explanation of Blue Dog's color. And by the end of the book, they will see that the artist's reasoning is both logical and magical: Blue Dog simply had to be blue.

- w***0 (9)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe bookmark arrived right on time, and looks brand-new as the seller said. I appreciated the way it was packaged in an envelope with my name and address handwritten--it added a personal touch. I also was touched by the 'Thank you!' written on a piece of paper wrapped around the cardboard holding the bookmark: It was the first thing I saw when I opened the 'letter.' A second bookmark with a different theme was included in the package, which I wasn't expecting, but was a nice surprise. Thank you!
