    WHat I liked About


    the book...

    Integrating Visuals

    The theme of colors.

    People observe the colors of


    a day only at its beginnings
    and ends, but to me its quite
    clear that a day merges
    through a multitude of shades
    and intonations, with each
    passing moment. A single hour
    can consist of thousands of
    different colors. Waxy
    yellows, cloud-spat blues.
    Murkey darknesses. (Zusak 4)

    A book with...
    a different point of view
    a variety of visuals

    ...Then read this book
