Stolen Colors

A Story About Body Safety and Consent

A powerful and sensitive story about body safety and consent that every family needs.

Shreya loves to paint. Her world is filled with bright, bold colors as lively as she is. Even her art teacher, Mr. Rao, thinks her work is ""marvelous."" But when he asks to paint her during recess when the other kids are outside, Shreya's excitement turns to fear. The moment she arrives, she knows something is wrong, and in that moment, she freezes.

The experience shatters her love of painting, leaving her feeling awful and unable to find the words to tell her mother why.

Her former rival, Meera, has also become Mr. Rao's new subject. But unlike Shreya, Meera yells ""No!"" and runs for help. Meera’s example gives Shreya the courage she needs to reclaim her voice and her love of art.

This crucial resource for families and book collections everywhere includes guidance and resources to help parents and children navigate this important topic.
