Description
Painting Grace follows Billy and Mary as they join a protest that looks just like the ones in their history books-except this time, they're part of it.When a mysterious artist appears and transforms into a butterfly, the siblings are taken on a journey through history. From the fight for women's suffrage to civil rights marches, they see how justice has always required courage, color, and complexity. Along the way, they confront questions about fear, inclusion, and what happens when the world is painted in single hues.As Bug and Bear, their magical alter egos, Billy and Mary witness how blending perspectives makes us stronger-and how erasing any part of the story leads to something much darker.This beautifully illustrated, rhyming picture book builds on themes introduced in The Story Shapers and invites children into a deeper conversation about identity, equity, and the power of co-creation. With metaphors rooted in color theory and vivid references to historic movements, Painting Grace uses art as a lens to teach about social justice, inclusion, and the freedom to belong.Written in lyrical verse and packed with rich visual symbolism, Painting Grace is ideal for classrooms, family storytime, and anyone exploring diversity, equity, and inclusion with young readers.
