What is White Is for Blueberry (Ala Notable Children's Books. Younger Readers (Awards)) about?

<p><P>Is a blueberry blue?<P>Is a crow black?<P>Is fire yellow?<P>Is snow white?<P>If you think you know,<br> then think &#151;<br> and look again!</p><h3>Ken Marantz and Sylvia Marantz - Children's Literature</h3><p>Starting with Pink is for crow, Shannon wants us to think differently about the colors in nature. For when it has just hatched from its egg, a crow is pink. And Black is for poppy...when we take the time to look inside. Red, green, purple, white, blue, yellow, brown, and orange all appear in unexpected places, depending on when and where we look. Not only a challenge to the usual cliches, this book should spur curious and creative youngsters to find their own different ways of seeing. Dronzek's acrylic paintings, often created as double-page scenes, are boldly stated in tensely colored hues, naturalistic but with the shapes of the turning leaves, the birthday candles, or whatever the subject may be pared down to basics. Standing alone as esthetic statements, they still provide the information needed to explain these unexpected comparisons. 2005, Greenwillow Books, and Ages 4 to 8. </p>
