Bookroo's summary

Blue envies Red's exciting life of fighting fires and swinging from trees. But when Blue tries to be Red, things don't go as planned. Join Blue on a heartfelt journey of self-discovery and learn why being true to yourself is the most rewarding path. Will Blue embrace his own unique identity, or continue chasing someone else's dream?

From the publisher

A clever and moving picture book about finding out what it means to be yourself–in this case, what it means to be Blue! Blue wants to be Red. Red is exciting and funny and fascinating. She gets to fight fires and swing from trees and tell cars to STOP. But it turns out trying to be Red isn’t as fun, or as easy, as Blue thought it would be. What might happen if instead of trying to be like Red, Blue tried to just be Blue? Come along with Blue on his journey to self-discovery, self-acceptance, and self-love.
