Ron Grady

Pink and blue, step to the side. There is a new color in town! What Does Brown Mean to You? is the debut children's picture book from educator Ron Grady. In this book, we meet Benny, a little boy talking about different ways the color brown is explored and celebrated throughout his life. From Benny's beautiful brown skin to the color of his grandmother's coffee, the color brown shines throughout this delightful story.  Ron Grady joins us to talk about how his career as a nature preschool teacher and his love for drawing brought about this much-needed story. We also speak about the ways parents can be encouraged to have conversations with their little ones about race and ethnicity.
