    A Colorful Beginning

    Written by Raven Howell

    Illustrated by Carina Povarchik

    Ages 2+ | 32 Pages

    Publisher: Black Rose Writing | ISBN-13: 9781685130886

    Publisher’s Book Summary: Children will relate to first-day-of-school jitters as animal students prepare and set off for Mr. Mole’s colorful classroom. Anxiety builds as everyone settles into school to meet one another and tackle their first lesson-learning colors!

    Young students come to recognize that just as colors are distinct and beautiful in their own way, they are safe to embrace their own uniqueness, too. The day is spent sharing and blending paints while forging happy friendships.

    Gently tapping into themes of fitting in, self-esteem, and anxiety while teaching color concepts, the story helps conquer the insecurities felt when children begin something new and unknown.

      Zay has learned so much about color by playing with it. She loves mixing colors and getting somethings and also learning to much mixing gives you muddy colors. She has learned to mix and stop and look at work before add more color
