Why Is Blue Dog Blue? is the perfect picture book for animal-loving children to learn their colors!
Blue Dog’s creator, George Rodrigue, combines playful puns with new whimsical Blue Dog silkscreens to help readers learn all about colors and the reasoning behind art.
From basic primary and secondary to the exotic ones most color primers ignore, 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.
