In this delightful and enlightening color-blind book for kids, Perry sees colors differently, but that doesn't stop him from exploring and enjoying the vibrant world around him. Through his journey, Perry teaches readers about empathy, awareness, and the beauty of seeing the world from different perspectives.

Perry sat on the garden bench, taking in all the colors around him. "The world is a very colorful place, Grandpa."

Grandpa sat down next to Perry and smiled. "The world may be a colorful place, but how you see it is uniquely yours."

Visiting his grandparents, Perry starts to notice that his perception of colors isn't the same as everyone else's. The bright red apples everyone else sees seem dull to Perry, and the yellow roses his sister admires appear white to him. Confused and curious, Perry starts to realize that the way he sees colors might be different from what others see.

This disability book for kids blends engaging storytelling with charming illustrations to create a meaningful and memorable learning experience.

In this color blind picture book, readers will learn

  • about color blindness in a way that is both engaging and relatable,
  • how to appreciate diversity,
  • how to understand how others might see the world differently,
  • and, most importantly, to celebrate the unique qualities that make each of us special.


How Perry Sees It is perfect for readers who enjoyed titles like The ABCs of Inclusion: A Disability Inclusion Book for Kids and Clark the Colorblind Chameleon. Just as these books open hearts and minds, Perry's story invites children into a world where differences are celebrated and understood.

Join Perry on his extraordinary journey and discover how differences can be the most beautiful thing of all!
