What begins is a cycle of emotions expressed through color. From sadness (blue), to envy of others with cones of their own (green), to anger (red), and more, his progression through a range of feelings \/ tactics is both humorous and cathartic to readers experiencing both his pain and the excessiveness of his reaction. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMeanwhile, his father's consistent response of a simple \"No\" serves as its own model of effectiveness in the face of tantrum. The art uses sparse, thick-lined images in black and white paired with a full range of colors, each associated with an emotional response. The simplicity of both the art and text combine to open the door to future referencing and resolving similar real-life situations that stem from hearing the word \"No.\"","brand":"Elisabetta Pica","offers":[{"title":"Penguin Young Readers Group |  Hardback | Picture book |  2021-06-01","offer_id":44151842930943,"sku":"9780593382653","price":22.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0329\/9075\/7001\/products\/BNCImageAPI_df73461e-50db-4aeb-8ab8-1b5de453cc88.jpg?v=1625979642","url":"https:\/\/riverbookshop.com\/products\/9780593382653","provider":"River Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
