Known for her talent in rhyming tales for little ones, author Julia Dweck hits the nail on the head once again with Blucy.  The rhymes are spot on and though the combinations at times are surprising, (but in a good way) it allows the story to come across loud and clear.  Let us not forget the amazing illustrations!  The color palette is rich, the blues varied as need be to fit the events transpiring, and the texture will make you want to stroke Blucy's fur right on the e-page.  You'll get lost with Blucy as she hides among the forget-me-nots, shake off the pool water when she dives in for an impromptu swim, and gasp in mock horror (okay, somewhat mock) when she has an encounter with the curtains (which I don't truly think she intended, but still!), all on a quest to find a place where she truly belongs.**review copy received in exchange for my honest review...full post can be seen on my site**
