Description
In "In the Blue", Erin Hourigan explores depression within a family through a powerful and accessible story. A father's world is no longer bright and yellow, but instead a deep, dark blue, as he embarks on an emotional journey. His daughter navigates life lived in and around his depression, finding love and connection amidst the challenges they face. The book uses colour to indicate the ups and downs of one family's emotions, making it an important way to discuss mental illness with young readers. This poignant story is a valuable resource for parents and caregivers looking to talk about difficult topics with children.
