They say blue

'They Say Blue' follows a young girl through a year or a day, depending on your perspective, and illuminates where she finds colours in both the world around her and the world beyond what she can see.

Egg yolks are sunny orange, yet water cupped in her hands isn't quite so blue as expected.

But maybe a blue whale is blue. She doesn't know, she hasn't seen one. But the crows outside her window are just as black as the hair her mother combs each morning.

Gentle and meditative, this first picture book from celebrated illustrator Jillian Tamaki is timeless and ageless.
