Different Skies is a story about a child exploring the various colors of the sky. All of them are different and unique but still very beautiful. The artwork uses a soft approach with slightly faded and well-blended colors to provide a sense of calm and beauty, enhancing the reader's senses throughout the story. At the end of the book, the child claims that no matter the state of the sky, she will always enjoy it with her mother. This enforces the message of the strength of the bond between child and parent.
