Review Quotes
"[A] whimsical picture book about delighting in differences." --Foreword Reviews
"The Rainbow Sheep is one of the most beautiful and hopeful picture books that I've ever read. Like the book's star, Rainbow, David Hayward is one of a kind, a pastor who uses his gifts to offer all of us a thoughtful, diverse, and inclusive glimpse of God and ourselves." --Matthew Paul Turner, #1 New York Times Bestselling author of What Is God Like?
"This book is the child-friendly rendition of the quote by Lilla Watson, which claims our liberation is bound together. Rainbow Sheep will set your child free to be themselves, and teach them their freedom sets others free." --Cindy Wang Brandt, author of Parenting Forward and You Are Revolutionary
