Description
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.

Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
This charming picture book is likely to inspire thought and conversation about colors, feelings, and preconceived ideas. - Shelf Awareness.
Fox gets frustrated because his friends try changing what he is wearing to match his mood, yet rather than ending the story with his frustration, this book explains that colors don't have to match your mood. - YA Books Central.
