BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE

A little girl loves her dad so much! He calls her his Teeny-Tiny Sunspot. But sometimes her dad is blue, he seems sad or angry all the time and nothing she can do seems to help - even having a tantrum of her own. There is nothing to do but wait with her mother, until the day her dad is ready to seek help. Then the girl meets with someone, too. Someone who understands all the colors of the girl's dad.
In the Blue is a beautiful picture book about a child dealing with a parent who has clinical depression. I love that she received support as well. Includes some great resources for children and families coping with mental illness.
