Philadelphia, PA, April 19, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Rainbow Rabbit, a children’s book that teaches a message of acceptance and inclusion, is now available online at www.therainbowrabbit.com. The book was written by the late Arthur Vallee, and a portion of the proceeds are donated to organizations across the country that aid children in crisis.
“There are many hot button topics in our society right now regarding childhood acceptance, and we all know that lack of acceptance can come in brutal and degrading forms,” says the author’s grandson, Joe Vallee, Jr. “Our goal is to give these kids hope and assurance that they are not alone in this battle, and that things will change for the better. Through the lessons taught by Rainbow Rabbit, we learn that we must remain true to who we are, no matter what the obstacles or pressures might be in our path.”
Rainbow Rabbit is the story of a rainbow-colored rabbit who is ostracized by his community because he looks different than everyone else. In the end, his brilliant colors are the reason that The Queen selects him to lead the town’s Easter parade. He then realizes that “no matter what your color, we can live in harmony.”
Vallee was an animator for The Walt Disney Company in the 1940’s and had a deep love for children. It was his belief that this tale of unity and inclusion would benefit children who deal with bullying and harassment in their daily lives. The book’s message is receiving praise from educators, therapists, and child advocates across the country.
“Is it acceptable to be different? What do you do if you are teased?” poses Carol Teiltelbaum, a licensed MFT based in Rancho Mirage, CA. “How can we help our children appreciate differences in race, religion, and sexual preference? Books like Rainbow Rabbit can teach our children to not only accept others, but to celebrate them.”
Rainbow Rabbit is offered at a discount to non-profit organizations helping children in crisis, and many such foundations across the country are purchasing the items for educational purposes.
