Remember mood rings? They could broadcast your mood by whatever color they turned. This young narrator also links his moods to color. He starts out in a purple mood: a “cold-plum eating / grape juice drinking . . . / bobbing to the beat kind of mood.” But when his brothers tell him to “move!” he goes “to a gray kind of place / storm brewing inside.” So it goes, his mood changing depending on what’s happening. The colors feel right on—orange does seem perfect for a game of basketball, and watery blue right for “sailing on waves / in the sky of my mind.” Throughout, there’s a running story line about an African American family. The narrator is hassled by his older brothers until he takes a stand. He is happy when his brothers, little sister, and parents are all together at dinnertime. The artwork—digital collage created with oil paints and graphite and suffused with the individual hues—captures what the narrator’s own art might look like. An excellent jumping-off point for discussion—or writing—about readers’ own colorful moods. Preschool-Grade 2. --Ilene Cooper
