Additional Information

Within the placid confines of a china cabinet, a long-standing conflict rages between the Blues and the Reds. When the Blues decide to sneak in and paint the Reds blue, it’s the final straw!

It's only when they must help each other pick up the pieces, that they realise they are stronger together.

Based on her own character-filled collection of ceramics, author and illustrator Alexandra Mîrzac creates a moving children's book filled with passion and whimsy, reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland and Mixed. Entertaining and sentimental, it’s a touching example of the power that can be found in embracing differences and working together.

Alexandra Mîrzac is an author and illustrator based in Bucharest. She has a BA and MA in Graphic Arts from the National University of Arts Bucharest and was recently shortlisted for the AOI prize and The World Illustration Awards. Her debut picture book with Tate Publishing, Lost, was shortlisted for Nami Concours 2019.
