My Cold Plum Lemon Pie Bluesy Mood
|
“An excellent jumping-off point for discussion—or writing—about readers’ own colorful moods.” —Booklist
On a really good day, Jamie feels purple…like the first bite of a juicy cold plum. And with a crayon in his hand, Jamie eases into a green feeling…like a dragon dancing through a jungle made of green Jell-O. But when his brothers push him around and make fun of his drawings, Jamie feels gray like a dark storm brewing. What will it take to put Jamie back in a bright-feeling mood? Through Jamie, young readers will learn to embrace and describe their feelings in a unique way.
