What is My Shadow Is Pink about?

When a young boy discovers that his shadow is pink, he worries that others may not understand the things he loves. He enjoys princesses, fairies and dressing up, even though people say these are “not for boys”. With kindness and encouragement from his dad, he learns that everyone has a unique shadow and that being yourself is something to celebrate. Told in lively rhyme, this gentle picture book explores identity, courage, acceptance and the joy of feeling free to shine.
