							| No. The answer is just,  �No, it isn �t. �  �This � is emphatic in this situation. You could go on to say,  �but this is. � or  �this one is �. |  12 Mar 2012

      You can answer the question in two ways: either you say: "No, it isn �t." or "No, this book isn �t blue." |  12 Mar 2012

							| My suggestion: 
 Short answers: Yes, it is. / No, it isn �t. 
 Full answers: Yes, that book is blue. / No, that book isn �t blue.
