Keşke Türkçe´ye çevrilse dediğim kitaplardan biri daha... Gene Peter H.Reynolds´ın yazdığı harika bir kitap " Sky Color". Gökyüzü sizce ne renktir? Mavi mi? Yani sadece mavi mi? Marisol, boyalarla yaşayan resim yapmayı çok seven ver herkesin "sanatçı" olduğunu düşünen küçük bir kız.
Okulda öğretmenleri sınıfça bir duvar resmi yapacaklarını söylediğinde, arkadaşları gibi o da çok heyecanlanıyor... Ve boyamak için gökyüzünü seçiyor... Kutusuna baktığında tek bir eksik renk var o da "mavi"...
Yazarın Nokta ve Mış Gibi kitaplarında olduğu gibi, bu hikayede de konu hayal gücü ve yaratıcılık. Mükemmel bir kitap, 4 yaş üzeri için tavsiye ederim, Candlewick Press yayıncılıktan.
