Paint the Sky

Multi award-winning author, Tanya Nicolle MacCallum, has released her first children's book. Paint the Sky teaches us the value of interpreting perspective: both human and animal. Winner of the Lucy Maud Montgomery Writing for Children award, this piece of short fiction follows the journey of a horse through snapshots of its life. An important take on topics otherwise untouched in children's literature, the story brings dismissed truths to the forefront. Engaging, challenging, eye-opening and spirited, Paint the Sky reminds us that the difficult obstacles in life can be overcome, while withholding to the beauty found in moments, the relationships we form and the hardships we conquer together. Poetically written, with rich sentences and beautiful symbolism, MacCallum is a master of her craft. “A vivid story telling from a difficult point of view. Fine horse stories, from fine writers who love horses, are a winning combination.” -- Sheree Fitch, beloved Canadian author & literacy advocate.
