Reena’s Rainbow School Holiday Workshop

By

Squishy Minnie is super excited to be the host a wonderful school holiday workshop on the 4th of October at 11am for creative 5-9 year olds! Run by Macedon Ranges author Dee White and illustrator Tracie Grimwood, it will be a wonderful hour spent for the little ones learning how to make their own amazing rainbow story.

Reena’s Rainbow is a brand new heartwarming story about friendship, diversity and acceptance.

Reena is deaf and Dog is homeless, but they are also so much more than that. At first Reena and Dog feel like they don’t belong, but when they form a unique bond with each other, and become friends with the hearing children in the park, they discover that everyone is different and special in their own way. It sends the message that true friends will always accept your differences and love you just the way you are.

There will be an Auslan interpreter for this workshop so children with all hearing abilities are welcome!

The cost of the workshop ($35) includes a signed copy of Reena’s Rainbow and all of the resources needed on the day.

Purchase your tickets to attend the workshop in-store or online by clicking here.
