In a Time Before Rainbows

In a Time Before Rainbows is a beautifully illustrated children's story in rhyming verse. Readers will join the colorful adventures of unique strangers and find out how together they create a wondrous new way of being. Each brightly colored character has his own distinct personality, and the journey teaches all of us how to recognize, accept, and communicate about feelings and respect differences between ourselves and others.

In a Time Before Rainbows teaches us about difference and diversity by showing us that connecting to others who may be different, while remaining true to ourselves, allows us to form a more beautiful whole together. The story suggests that we all struggle at times and when we do, connecting with others can be healing. These are important lessons for our children to learn early in their lives and important lessons for adults to remember. The book is written for children ages four to eight, but it is appropriate for children and adults of all ages.
