The slippery feet of fake aliens

Our eyes tell us about colour. But what if you are blind? Can you still know colours? 6JH have been considering this, using The Black Book of Colours (by Menena Cottin and illustrated by Rosanna Faria). Using simple language and beautiful textured art, the book shows readers how to see without their eyes. The pages are black, but by readers using their imagination and senses they can hear, smell, touch and taste colours.

After exploring the book, 6JH wrote their own sentences to explain their experience of a particular colour and what it meant to them. Some examples are written below: 



How would you describe a colour?
