Official synopsis Publisher
This book is a book about racial diversity explained in ways that kindergarten students understand. The premise of the book is that people aren’t really different skin colors because we are all brown. The teacher would hold her hand over the pages with color hands on them to show that her skin isn’t any of those colors. If we can get young children to NOT see skin in different colors, they can change the future world’s mindset.
