    About the Book

    Coloring the Rainbow- the power if connection: book cover

    Coloring the Rainbow: The Power of Connection

    Written by Catherine Rose

    Illustrated by Jeff Dale

    Ages: 3-8 | 32 Pages

    Publisher: Beaver’s Pond Press (2023) | ISBN: 9781643436371

    Publisher’s Book Summary: Coloring the Rainbow: The Power of Connection tells a story of the magic created when the unique talents of a diverse group of children are shared in a colorful adventure.

    The adventure begins when we see through a boy’s window to find a young trombonist pausing his practice to wonder if other musical voices exist. When an alluring treble note wafts through his window, he begins an excited quest to find the answer. Playing his horn through his neighborhood, the boy draws other curious children to play their unique instruments along with him.

    Together, they played:
    “Lend your voice, play your part!
    Something grand is beginning―
    join us for the start!”

    The procession of music makers is touched with magic when their combined voices, raised in harmony, orchestrate a colorful miracle.

    The ease of poetry and vibrant illustrations make this book a perfect keepsake for any gift-giver wishing to explore the values of diversity and inclusion with young, loved ones.

    Impressively inspiring and fresh . . . buy this book, send copies to your friends, and tell the world that they have gifts that they need to give for the sake of others. This book brings us closer together and to the truth within ourselves.

    About the Author

    Catherine Rose is enjoying that time of life when one thinks of creating a legacy.  What are the lessons learned from living life’s adventure that would benefit generations to come?

    As a pediatric nurse, she wrote therapeutic stories to help children cope masterfully with injury and illness.  Her present stories weave tales with similarly empowering messages to support children’s development of resilience, confidence and empathy. 

    Rose writes from the back porch of her log home, inspired by the profile of Mount Jefferson in North Carolina. Married to her high school sweetheart, they now enjoy perpetual recess with their two grandchildren, whose favorite activity is to read a book written by Nana!

    About the Illustrator

    Jeff Dale’s foray into artistic design began when his boss at a printing shop asked him to design a logo for a client. While the logo was an impressive design, creating the art had an even more impressive effect on motivating a true passion for creative design.

    Educated in the design world of Washington, DC, Jeff’s wide scope of interest and talent has inspired him to design, create, and build just about anything one can conceive of creating, including this debut as an illustrator of a children’s book. Jeff is the founder of Dale Design, situated in Raleigh, North Carolina, where he resides with his wife and two grown children.

    His varied talent in artistic design can be appreciated by visiting his website: www.daledesign.com.
