Mondays Are Apple Green

A beautiful and authentic celebration of synesthesia (the rare merging of senses experienced by about 4% of people) by an award-winning author and synesthete. Anna experiences the world a little differently. Sounds make her mouth water; names and days have colours. Anna's Tuesdays are sparkly like shiny tinsel. The notes of her music teacher's violin taste like delicious chocolate sauce. And Anna's own name is black currant purple! "Is it just me?" she wonders uncertainly, but her mum explains that Anna is "one of a special few" because Anna has synesthesia. This eye-opening picture book uses lyrical text and vivid imagery to bring this colourful perceptual phenomenon to life on the page in an engaging way that young children can understand. Mondays are Apple Green enables young synesthetes to feel seen and is a joyful celebration of difference!Author: Maria Luisa Petrarca,illustrator,Louise Greig,author Contributors: Maria Luisa Petrarca,illustrator,Louise Greig,author Binding: hardcover Publication Date: Release Date: Languages: English,Published,English,Original Language,Englis Format: picture_book Published/Release Date: 17 Sep 2026 Format: Hardback Publisher/Studio/Brand: Floris Books Author/Director/Artist: Louise Greig Dimension (cm): 259x239x13 mm Package Dimension (cm): 13x259x239 mm Item Weight (g): 408 Package Weight (g): 408
