We are excited to once again host author Nancy Churnin in-store for a Special Story Time on Saturday, July 13th with her book, Rainbow Allies: The True Story of Kids Who Stood Against Hate.
When a lesbian couple comes home one day to find their Pride flag stolen and their front porch egged, the sense of belonging they had felt in their community is threatened. Are they safe in their house? The support they need comes from an unexpected place--the neighborhood's children. Together, the local kids create a plan to show Cari and Lauri just how valued they are in the community.
Based on real-life events, Rainbow Allies tells the story of how a Massachusetts neighborhood rallied together around Cari and Lauri--and their dogs, Twink and Scout--to make them feel welcomed and loved again after an act of hate. Written by multi-award-winning author Nancy Churnin, this book is an inspiring introduction to allyship for young readers and changemakers.
Backmatter includes guidance for how children can be LGBTQ allies in their own communities.
