Tomorrow's Alphabet의 저자인 George Shannon이 이번에는 시간의 변화에 따라 사물들의 색이 어떻게 변하는지를 추리해 볼 수 있도록 만든 책입니다.
첫 페이지에서 "까마귀는 분홍색입니다."라고 소개합니다. 까마귀는 까만색이라는 고정관념을 갖고 있는 독자들에게는 뜬금없는 소리로 들리겠지만, 다음 페이지를 열면 의문이 풀립니다. 까마귀들이 알에서 막 깨어났을 때는 까만색이 아니라 분홍색이네요.
이렇듯 양귀비꽃은 검은색, 나뭇잎은 빨간색, 무우는 녹색, 눈은 보라색, 블루베리는 하얀색, 불꽃은 파란색, 소나무는 노란색, 고구마는 갈색, 하늘은 오렌지색 등 사물들의 색에 대한 우리의 고정관념을 깨는 신선한 발상의 전환을 보여줍니다.
큰 사이즈의 튼튼한 하드커버입니다.

School Library Journal
If Georgia O'Keeffe had made a book for young children, it might have looked like this one. Close-ups of natural phenomenon in a vibrant palette combine with strategic pacing to undo the viewer's preconceptions about color. This creative duo has selected 10 images with which to stage their drama. The minimalist text appears in black ink, except for the words that name the colors; they are enlarged and color-coordinated. Thus, the opening page depicts a black crow, but the text reads, "Pink is for crow…." The page turn reveals a spread showing a nest of newborn birds and the conclusion: "…when it has just hatched from its egg." In like manner, author and artist pair purple and snow, blue and firelight, yellow and pine trees. The disconnect between the written hue and the initial object, combined with the elliptical construction, allows older children to guess and predict the outcomes and younger ones to be surprised. The bold, uncluttered scenes, rendered in acrylics, have a sweetness and strength that is quite pleasing to the eye. Easy to read and fun to share, this paean to the wonder of cycles and the rewards of close observation is the perfect prelude to a thoughtful excursion. Fans of Shannon and Dronzek would also enjoy titles such as Tana Hoban's Look! Look! Look! and N. N. Charles's What Am I? Looking Through Shapes at Apples and Grapes.
Booklist
Shannon challenges color associations that become ingrained in early life by using unusual combinations of words and images: "Pink is for crow," reads the text, which is illustrated with a painting of a glossy black bird. An explanation comes on the following spread: "When it has just hatched from its egg," accompanied by a picture of featherless pink nestlings. Subsequent spreads follow a similar pattern of contradiction and explanation: red poppies, for example, are black "when we take the time to look inside." The text is sometimes awkward: purple represents snow "when the snow is the shadow of us." But the rich hues and solid, uncomplicated shapes in the thickly brushed acrylic paintings extend the sense of visual delight and the mystery in the words. The format invites children to look with the eyes of an artist or a scientist, question preconceptions, and closely examine the actual world, where blueberries are, indeed, sometimes white.
