In this celebration of color, the natural world, and the self, young readers enter a bright, beautiful world where imperfection leads to new creations: "Eek! the yellow color splatters, / Now a little duckling paddles / Monarch butterflies abound / Where sunflowers sprout from the ground." Ink spills in every imaginable color, and an act that some would perceive as an uncorrectable accident transforms over and over into spouting whales, shadowy landscapes, a mouse's toes, and even a Flamingo King. Wolves and pandas emerge from "drizzled drops of sprinkled gray." Meanwhile, a needed message about the beauty of individualism blossoms and glows. The book's message of "Together it's a brilliant view" reminds young readers about the power of unity and understanding.
