About this item

A 2023 New York Public Library Best Book A 2024 NSTA-CBC Outstanding Science Trade Book Texas Topaz Nonfiction Reading List A 2024 CCBC Choice A 2024 Maryland’s “Great Reads from Great Places” Library of Congress Children's Book Selection A 2024 Bank Street Best Children's Book This gorgeous celebration of the color blue and the indigo plant, by a Korean American debut artist and storyteller, powerfully connects art and the natural world. With lavish mixed-media art including watercolor painting and hand-dyed textiles, debut author-illustrator Rosa Chang pays tribute to the science and art of growing the indigo plant and making indigo dye. Woven throughout is a poetic tribute to the color blue, Chang’s favorite since her girlhood in Korea, and an appreciation of the indigo plant as a valued source of blue dye in cultures around the world. Informative back matter tells more about the science behind indigo dye production, with an “indigo map” of the shades of blue produced by indigo around the world, and simple instructions for growing your own indigo plants and making homemade blue dye.
