Colors In Me: Strength, Love, Resiliency

By Chelsa Dilcher

Follow young Austin as he tells his story of surviving abuse and neglect at home while trying to be the "good" kid at school. He struggles with his emotions, self-control, and anger and this has made his school experience very negative. He is starting at a new school and doesn't want to be the "bad" kid again this year. He seeks comfort and safety with his neighbor Dorothy while his mom struggles with her own addiction and domestic violence. Can he overcome the trauma? Will this school be different than the last? Will the teachers fake-care about him just to get him to behave? You will fall in love with Austin and have a new understanding of how words impact students and children. This story is based in truth from stories that have been shared over years working as a school counselor and therapist. Austin is a mix of the many struggles that students and children face. It truly is a must read for anyone working with kids and for anyone looking for a heart warming and emotional book that you won't be able to put down.
