About this event


Bring the little ones for a reading of "The Sky is not Blue" by the author and GBIV member, Joy Jones. This story highlights a boy's creativity and self-confidence challenge and inspire his teacher.

Children learn many things from their teachers, yet sometimes teachers can learn from students! Robert holds fast to what he knows and believes. And Mrs. Murphy comes to agree that the sky is not just blue. It's a spectrum of rich and changing colors that remind her of children full of joy and imagination.

The Sky Is Not Blue invites a conversation about individual perspectives and encourages children to trust and express their beliefs.
