Lavender Is Purple

A delightful read-aloud story for families and educators of young children, inviting dialogue about all the wonderful colors of people. On first day of school, Lavender is transported during story time, challenged while drawing her family, and even makes a friend, Kelly. But in a world of primary colors, neither Lavender nor Kelly find colors that represent them.

"You're weird too?" asked Lavender. She still felt unusual. "Of course, I am," said Kelly, "both of us are beautiful!"

The two friends stumble onto a box of paint and Ms. Lemon teaches the class how to mix colors to create the colors of their dreams. The kids learn that when they are all covered in colors, all of their differences disappear.

Fantastic illustrations accompany this rhythmical ballad. Get the audiobook to complete the theater in the mind of any child.
