With Our Orange Hearts
Listening is a first step towards reconciliation. It’s never too early to start.
“Every child matters, including you and me. With our orange hearts, we walk in harmony.”
As a young child, your little world can be full of big feelings. In this book, I, Phyllis Webstad, founder of Orange Shirt Day, show how sharing my story with the world helped me to process my feelings. My true story encourages young children to open their hearts when others share their feelings and be more comfortable sharing their own feelings, too.
