My book stumper is a children’s picture book I’m pretty sure it’s about colours. I have no title or author but I was about 5 or 6 reading it, making that 1963-64.
\nWhat I remember most are the deep rich vibrant colours. It was nothing like the washed out, pastel-riddled books I mostly had.
\nOne page was a drawing of a bunch of grapes and they were the deepest, purplest, most mouth-watering colour imaginable.
\nI think I remember a cloudy storm page…all blues,blacks,grey’s. Images were large and loud. Maybe a new book in the vibrant 60’s!<\/p>\n
There was an orangey page. A bold page of sun, I think.<\/p>\n
I remember no people and if there was text it was very limited… maybe “a purple bunch of grapes” or just “grapes are purple”. No story.
\nOnly about 8- 10pgs perhaps.
\nHardback. paper pages.<\/p>\n
We grew up in Canada so either an American or British book, not likely Canadian.<\/p>\n
It was stunning. I would love to find it<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
