| The book is printed using three Day-Glo colors: Saturn Yellow, Fire Orange, and Signal Green |
Joe and Bob Switzer were very different brothers. Bob was a studious planner who wanted to grow up to be a doctor. Joe dreamed of making his fortune in show business and loved magic tricks and problem-solving.
When an accident left Bob recovering in a darkened basement, the brothers began experimenting with ultraviolet light and fluorescent paints. Together they invented a whole new kind of color, one that glows with an extra-special intensity—Day-Glo.
Students made connections to the dates in the book and other historical events that we have studied this year. We also discussed how the brothers demonstrated a growth mindset.
A discovery that made the world a brighter place!
