They Say Blue by Jillian Tamaki

I really loved the poetic nature of this story and the flow of the illustrations, which helped connect points and moved the reader through the story visually and seamlessly.
I'm not entirely sure what age I'd recommend this for. The 4 year old I read it to had a hard time understanding the stream-of-conscious aimlessness. We spent more time discussing what she could see in each scene, what it had in common with the one before and after, etc. The language went a little over her head, but I could use it to teach her connections.
