BUYING ADVISORY: EL, MS, HS - ESSENTIAL 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH 

Brew-Holland and Minter have a created a beautiful, accessible and frame-worthy book about the history of the color blue. I don’t know if other colors have such intriguing stories, but my heart wants a book like this for many more colors! Deep enough for a high school art class, but understandable for young readers too.
