WILL ORANGE KUMQUATS CONQUER BORING GREY? 

Dorothy McMoogle, who wants to play the bugle till she’s green and hang kumquat colours on every bush and tree, is tired of drab and neat. After Dottie Aunt Lottie’s Gloom-O-Meter dings its warning, Dorothy hops into battle with boring grey. A story in rhyme to brighten the gloomiest day! An ode to creativity and being true to yourself, and having fun while you’re at it, for children ages 4-8 and the young at heart.
