A powerful message about childhood depression and how parents can help their little ones learn to cope.
Little Fen loves all of the beautiful colors in the world and loves capturing them with her treasured set of paints.

Reviews / Votes
In "Fen's Touch of Gray," author Brian Wray sensitively addresses the complex topic of overwhelming sadness. In a touching story that speaks directly to the hearts and minds of young children, little Fen teaches that, even in the face of difficult feelings, we can find our way back to "beauty" and "color." A wonderful book to help children cope. -- Michelle Witkin, Ph.D.More details
