American Psychological Association I See You A Story for Kids About Homelessness
Book SynopsisOver the course of a year, one boy is witness to all that a homeless woman endures endures. Trade ReviewGold medal winner, Nautilus Awards Gold medal winner, 2018 IPPY Awards Gold Medal Winner, 2017 Foreword INDIES Awards Gold Medal winner, Mom's Choice Awards Interview with author in Street Sense Media, "Children's book facilitates discussion about homelessness and how to help" “Michael Genhart’s wordless picture book is about heart, compassion and connecting with others. It is the perfect medium to open the door for children and parents to begin a conversation about the many kinds of homelessness. It also encourages children to study the detailed illustrations a little more carefully and use their imaginations to tell the story. The boy is an inspiration and reminder of a child’s untainted generosity. The emotion and candor captured by this story are beautifully brought to life in Joanne Lew-Vriethoff’s heartfelt and vivid illustrations.” —Children’s Books Heal "This wordless tale depicts the trials of a homeless woman whom only one boy can see. For a year, only he sees all that she endures having no home and very few personal belongings. Not to mention, not a soul reaches out to help her. Finally, in a heartwarming display of compassion, the little boy acknowledges her with a simple gesture. “I See You” is an ideal conversation starter to approach the difficult subject of homelessness." —Parent.co “Exceptional, unique, thoughtful, thought-provoking, and providing a thoroughly entertaining story with an underlying and positive message, I See You is especially and unreservedly recommended for family, daycare center, preschool, elementary school, and community library social issue-themed picture book collections.” —Midwest Book Review

American Psychological Association Sewing the Rainbow A Story About Gilbert Baker
Book SynopsisThe story of Gilbert, creator of the rainbow flag which helped galvanize the gay rights movement in the 1970s and today.Trade Review5th-6th grade Finalist in 2019 Children’s Choice Book Awards 2019 ALA GLBT Round Table Rainbow Book List SelectionNCSS-CBC 2019 Notable Social Science Trade Book for Young PeopleNational Parenting Product Award Winner (NAPPA) “An enduring symbol of the LGBTQIAP+ community.” –Booklist “A colorful tribute to Gilbert Baker… creating the rainbow flag after a conversation with Harvey Milk. The art is beautiful and bright, transitioning powerfully from a subdued Kansan landscape to a flamboyant Bay Area…. It's clear this book has a lot of love for the flag's promise.” —Kirkus Reviews “The story of the rainbow flag is just as much Gilbert Baker’s story as it is the LGBTQ+ movement’s story. Dr. Gayle Pitman tells the story of a sensitive boy who loved art and grew up to unite the world. Holly Clifton-Brown’s colorful illustrations give us an apple-cheeked, sweet-faced boy who just wants to create; her artwork goes wonderfully hand-in-hand with Dr. Pitman’s prose to engender empathy in reader… This story pairs nicely with Rob Sanders and Steven Salerno’s book, Pride: The Story of Harvey Milk and the Rainbow Flag, which has a nice little cameo by a grown-up Gilbert. Sewing the Rainbow is a must-add to your biography collections.” —Mom Read It "I love how this story teaches us about Gilbert Baker and his legacy, but is also unapologetically direct about the importance of letting kids be themselves even if their personalities don’t fit into some kind of society approved gender-specific boxes. Personalities are meant to shine, not be squashed and molded into a form that we think is appropriate." —From the Inside "I am so happy to see a picture biography about Gilbert Baker and his legacy, which can at times become sidelined when when we focus on Harvey Milk in our queer history....I appreciate how paralleling the story of his creating the rainbow flag is his story of being free to be himself after childhood and early young adulthood experiences of peoples’ disapproval of him. This is, of course, what the flag represents. The story celebrates unity, in diversity, symbols, creativity and that we should never feel ashamed of letting our inner sparkle show. The illustrations are bright and colorful, perfect for the story. This is an important addition to your units on inclusion, tolerance and lgbt history."—Miss Marple's Musings

Not Stated STEPPING STONES A REFUGEE FAMILYS JOUR
Book SynopsisThis unique picture book was inspired by the stone artwork of Syrian artist Nizar Ali Badr, discovered by chance by Canadian children?s writer Margriet Ruurs. The author was immediately impressed by the strong narrative quality of Mr. Badr?s work, and, using many of Mr. Badr?s already-created pieces, she set out to create a story about the Syrian refugee crisis. Stepping Stones tells the story of Rama and her family, who are forced to flee their once-peaceful village to escape the ravages of the civil war raging ever closer to their home. With only what they can carry on their backs, Rama and her mother, father, grandfather and brother, Sami, set out to walk to freedom in Europe. Nizar Ali Badr?s stunning stone images illustrate the story.Orca Book Publishers is pleased to offer this book as a dual-language (English and Arabic) edition.
