Mommy Why Is Everyone so Mad?

I wrote my first book last year during the pandemic. The times were difficult and our country was on lockdown due to the surging numbers of people infected with and dying from the Covid-19 virus. There was much unrest amongst the people of our nation due to social injustice and the conditions we faced as a result of the pandemic. Many families suffered the loss of loved ones and people could not gather together for support. It was then I began to write my children's story. The story is told from the viewpoint of a child. The main character awakens due to a noise she hears coming from the living-room. When she enters the room she sees her mother watching television and there are people holding signs. Her mother doesn't see her enter the room and a tear falls from her eyes. When Livi asks her mother what's happening a conversation unfolds that gives way to inclusion and diversity. Her mother uses the illustration of a rainbow to describe the unique characteristics of individuals. The two children discuss with their mother the importance of being accepting and open to others differences. This is a great book for discovering character feelings and introducing diversity to children.
