Praise for My Cold Plum Lemon Pie Bluesy Mood by Tameka Fryer Brown:"In a free-wheeling style and going far beyond the usual pairings of colors with moods… a nicely sophisticated exploration.” —Kirkus “It’s valuable both for its believable exposition of Jamie's interior world and for its warm portrait of the life of a nonwhite family in which sharing is essential, rules are followed, conflicts are resolved, and meals are enjoyed together.” —Publishers Weekly"An excellent jumping-off point for discussion—or writing—about readers’ own colorful moods." —Booklist
