An authentic, age-appropriate touch-and-feel board book designed for ages 0-3, written by the founder of the Orange Shirt Day movement and author of award-winning picture book Every Child Matters.

Orange Shirt Day is a day recognized annually on September 30th to honour Residential School Survivors, their families, and the children who did not come home.

&“Bright colors and imagery associated with Indigenous culture fill the pages, inviting young children to explore and discover each one… An accessible way for families to celebrate the beauty and uniqueness of every individual, and to support the ongoing memory of those who experienced life in Canada’s residential school system.” —School Library Journal

&“Webstad’s inviting picture book for very young children offers an introduction to Orange Shirt Day. This story opens up many opportunities for discussions about the devastating and far-reaching impacts of discrimination and how we can work together to create a more inclusive and peaceful world.”—Publishers Weekly, Booklife Review
