Description: In spring red sings from treetops: cheer-cheer-cheer, each note dropping like a cherry into my ear. In winter green waits in the hearts of trees, feeling the earth turn. Color comes alive in this whimsical, innovative book. Blue dances on summer lakes, green drips from spring leaves, black wafts mysteriously through autumn evenings. Together, an award-winning poet and a brilliant painter inspire us to look closer at the thrilling colors of the seasons. So what colors can you feel or hear or taste or smell today? - Back cover.
