[close] Bob, an artist, is left feeling very blue when his best friend, Bat, has to leave him for a while. So blue, in fact, that he finds he is only able to paint things in blue. Bob is trapped seeing his life only in blue until his other friends take him to see a sunrise, helping him see life in technicolour once more! This beautifully illustrated book teaches the importance of friendship and how our friends can help us realise our own resilience. It also helps young readers to understand that it is perfectly normal to feel lonely and that we all miss those close to us on occasion but we are often able to see the light at the end of the tunnel with the help of our friends. Recommended age: 3-4, extremely visual and easy to follow.
