North Bend, father-of-two, Josh Tuininga, has written, and beautifully illustrated, a book called "Why Blue?"
When he asked me to review it, I was happy to not only find a great book for my family but also to support a local author, which made it even sweeter!

As the book description says, "When a little girl wonders that age old question, “Why is the sky blue?” her imagination takes her on a beautiful journey of color, science and friendship."
Maya questions why the sky is blue and not hot pink, lime green or paisley or plaid. This question leads Maya on a journey to visit a baker, musician and many others throughout the day, all of whom give their own reasons for why the sky is blue. Is it painted blue? Is it because of blueberries? And does Maya ever get her question answered? Well, you'll need to read the book to find out!
If you are looking for a fun book for your family or even for your child's classroom (Teacher Appreciation Week is coming soon), "Why Blue?" is the great option! The book is perfect for beginning readers, kids who like to use their imaginations and families who enjoy cuddling up and reading together.
The hardcover book is available on Amazon, as well as the Kindle edition. Click here to connect to Amazon.
