If you’re looking for a classic children’s gift that will also serve as a keepsake, then this is a giveaway you won’t want to miss: One lucky Contest Corner reader will win an autographed copy of the storybook Colors of Me by Brynne Barnes, so read on!
Colors of Me by Brynne Barnes is a sweet picturebook for children that celebrates diversity. Written in rhyme, Colors of Me takes the reader on a journey exploring the rich tapestry of colors that make up our world in charming illustrations. Here’s a sample verse:
Does the grass know it’s green?
Does the sky know it’s blue?
Does the rain have a color?
If it did, would it still make puddles, too?
This book has a great positive message for children and would make a lovely gift for little ones to read again and again!
As a side note, if this author seems familiar, it’s because she also runs the Delectables By Brynne Etsy shop which we are also running a giveaway for! This is one talented lady!
Colors of Me is available at Barnes and Noble, independent bookstores, and Amazon for $12.14. For more information and to download free printables, be sure to visit BrynneBarnes.com.
