This appealing book contains an
important early lesson for every boy and girl to comprehend: When people of
different races and ethnic backgrounds come together, they form the most
magnificent sighta rainbow. Just like colors of the rainbow, each person is
unique in his and her own special way. But all have similar feelings, thoughts,
hopes, and dreams. Kids are encouraged to celebrate and appreciate both their
own and other people's differences, and above all, to come together like the
colors of the rainbow. Titles in the sensitively written Lets Talk About It!
series are available in both English and Spanish language editions. They speak
to the concerns and anxieties of preschool-age and early-grades children,
encouraging kids to explore their feelings and then to speak openly about
things that trouble them. Speaking openly and sharing troubling feelings with
parents or with some other trusted adult is an important first step in a
child's ability to overcome problems and achieve emotional growth. All books in
this series have appealing color illustrations on every page. (Ages 47)
