Blue

From Josh Armstrong, author of Picture of Grace, and Stephen J. Anderson, the acclaimed Disney director and artist behind Meet the Robinsons and Winnie the Pooh (2011), comes a deeply heartfelt picture book about growing up, letting go, and the places that stay with us forever.

Blue wasn't the newest car. Or the fastest. But it was ours.

This is the story of a boy and the car that carried his family through it all-school mornings, Saturday soccer, Sunday drives, and the quiet moments in between. Through scraped knees, snowball fights, and the birth of a baby sister, Blue was there. Until one day, it couldn't be. And that's when the boy learned one of life's hardest lessons: how to say goodbye.

Told with gentle humor and nostalgic honesty, Blue is a beautifully illustrated journey through the seasons of childhood. With artwork by Stephen J. Anderson that bursts with warmth and detail, every page feels like a memory pulled from your own life.

If you've ever loved something old and worn, if you've ever held on when it was time to let go, this story is for you. Perfect for readers young and old, Blue is a timeless reminder that the best journeys aren't about the destination-they're about who rides with you along the way.

For fans of The Velveteen Rabbit, Love You Forever, and anyone who still remembers their first car.
