Orange

Orange, a young person wrestling with feelings of belonging, helplessness and fitting in with the other personified colors of the rainbow, discovers her purpose, worth, and with help, a better sense of self. The value of diversity, inclusion, power of words, and getting help are touched upon in this wonderful timely and relevant children’s book. With the prevelance of adolescent and teen suicide in the world, Orange reminds us that bullying, the power of words, and being included often are at the core of the relation to such a choice a young person faces in that ultimate decision to take one’s own life.
