Book excerpt: @page { margin: 2cm } p { margin-bottom: 0.21cm } Lilac and Mauve can’t have babies of their own. So they decide to adopt two babies who don’t have a mummy or daddy. But when they go to get the new babies, they are not what they expect! @page { margin: 2cm } p { margin-bottom: 0.21cm } The story is aimed at young children, using animals rather than humans, to share the idea that it doesn’t matter who the parents are in a family, or if their children are different to them, as it is love that bonds them together. The story can be used to gently open up a discussion about multicultural, foster and same-sex families. Part of the Rainbow Street Series promoting gender awareness, Lilac and Mauve is a story of two parts. Firstly, the story introduces same-sex parents, though this is never discussed explicitly, because the main story is really about whether parents have to be the same as their children. As such the story can be used to discuss both gender roles and multicultural families using the single idea that it is not differences within a family that are important, but the love that bonds them together. This also makes the book helpful for discussing the idea of foster care and foster families, because it isn’t only biological parents who can be a loving. The Rainbow Street books are all aimed at 4- to 6-year-old children, using colourful pictures of animals to tell stories of gender identity and family diversity. They all share the common theme of acceptance and could equally be used at home and in school to discuss all forms of difference and diversity. By sharing the Rainbow Street Series of books with young children, the aim is to make gender diversity no big deal and no different to accepting and respecting ethnic diversity, religious diversity and forms of neurodiversity. Stories in the series cover topics ranging from gender identity and adoption by same-sex parents, through to single fatherhood and it being ok to live alone in old age. @page { margin: 2cm } p { margin-bottom: 0.21cm } As with all of its books, the publisher - Your Stories Matter – aims to help people know they are not alone with what makes them different. If a young person or adult can relate to a story, it gives them hope and encourages them to share their concerns. The publisher aims to provide free teaching resources for all of its books that can be used in schools, to help improve understanding and celebrate differences.
Download or read book Mauve written by Simon Garfield and published by Canongate Books. This book was released on 2018-05-03 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1856. Eighteen-year-old chemistry student William Perkin's experiment has gone horribly wrong. But the deep brown sludge his botched project has produced has an unexpected power: the power to dye everything it touches a brilliant purple. Perkin has discovered mauve, the world's first synthetic dye, bridging a gap between pure chemistry and industry which will change the world forever. From the fetching ribbons soon tying back the hair on every fashionable head in London, to the laboratories in which scientists first scrutinized the human chromosome under the microscope, leading all the way to the development of modern vaccines against cancer and malaria, Simon Garfield's landmark work swirls together science and social history to tell the story of how one colour became a sensation.
