“Color Me Skye by Gloria G. Adams may be one of the warmest and most uplifting books for grade-schoolers aged 9-12 you will read this year.” ~Tammy Ruggles for Reader Views
“A beautifully and sensitively written book about a veteran's family and the main character's (Skye's) journey of self-discovery…” C.H. Colman, author
“Color Me Skye follows twelve-year-old Skye as she navigates the aftermath of a terrifying car accident that leaves her mother in a coma. Stuck with her emotionally distant stepfather, Dim Tim, Skye battles fear, loneliness, guilt, and grief all while slowly learning to open her heart again…If you’ve ever lost someone or felt like your world was tilting sideways and couldn’t seem to right itself, this book will feel like a soft place to land. It’s ideal for middle-grade readers and anyone who’s dealt with grief, change, or feeling like the odd one out. I’d recommend it to parents, teachers, and counselors, too. It’s the kind of story that starts conversations.” ~Literary Titan
"The book has a unique writing style, colorful and telling typography, illustrations, and a cast of lovable characters. The ending left me full of joy and feeling all of the colors shown throughout the book. Bravo!" ~Glenn Somodi, author
I created an independent publishing company to scratch my creative itch and to publish books for children to help strengthen pre-reading skills
and explore the real world through colorful, fun fact-filled non-fiction titles., as well as books for middle grade readers, both fiction and nonfiction.
