"This critical message of community, unconditional love, respect, and allyship will resonate particularly during these turbulent times of political and social unrest." --The Bay Area Reporter "Churnin's telling is sturdy and impassioned about the message, that everyone is welcome. It's worth repeating, again and again. A little good news, for once, amplified into an easy book to work into community, LGBTQIA+, politics, and civics units." --School Library Journal "Based on a true story, this touching picture book demonstrates that hate can always be overcome by love and community--and suggests some age-appropriate methods for being part of the solution." --Foreword Reviews "Deftly written and based on a real event, Rainbow Alliesby author/storyteller Nancy Churnin is an inspiring picture book read for young readers and aspiring changemakers." --Midwest Book Review "A purposeful yet poignant exploration of allyship." --Kirkus Reviews "Churnin's step-by-step narration and Evans's crisp neighborhood landscapes bolster this straightforward allyship-oriented picture book based on real events.
