In 2168, humans have colonized several nearby star systems. In the Tau Epsilon system, on the third moon of the gas giant Delphi, the colony of Avalon sits as humanity’s furthest colony yet, and while it has thrived and grown, it will soon face a situation that none had predicted or prepared for. A young lieutenant, part of a military detachment sent to Avalon to investigate suspected weapons smuggling and assess an unidentified contact that has hidden among the orbiting asteroid belt, is eager to prove herself to her superiors. The commander of the small military force, a hardened veteran with a sordid past, whose stake in the mission is as much personal as professional.

“What is she doing?” Redempta whispered to James, who in reply only shrugged and raised his eyebrows, in wide-eyed wonder.Just then, Granny came up behind them, evidently having gone in a different direction than James and Redempta.“What are you children doing out here? You’ll catch your death of cold.” Granny reprimanded, but when she received no reply or reaction from the children, who continued to stare straight ahead she asked, “what is so fascinating, that makes you ignore my very existence?”Then furrowing her brows, she followed their gaze. “Why, I never…” she said in disbelief, bringing her hand up to cover her mouth. She was stunned silent for a moment.“Your mother is gardening!” She said in an awed tone shaking her head.Redempta and James watched to see what their mother would do.

The Sky is Blue was written and illustrated by the creator of the Little Bunny series, landscape artist Dianne Miller.At first glance, The Sky is Blue appears to be a concept book about colors. However, The Sky is Blue is a picture book about creativity.Each color in the color wheel is presented in four pictures. The first depicts an object or element in the color it typically appears in nature. The next two show the item in colors that appear less common. The fourth illustration depicts the item in a color produced by a person's creative action.The Sky is Blue is intended to gently encourage young children to look beyond stereotypes and encourage the freedom to creatively express their thoughts, ideas and feelings.Packaged inside a very traditionally illustrated book about colors are the seeds to creative and abstract expression.
