Show transcript
The colour blue is referred to repeatedly throughout the story and is part of what makes Asiya's hijab special to her. The author states what the hijab isn't as a way of communicating its special nature. Colours can be used to represent ideas, objects and feelings. Precise adjectives can enhance the description of colours and nouns. Similes can be used to compare two things using 'like' or 'as'.
