We are in the process of animating Coota
and the Magic Quilt! Please check back often for updates on this exciting project!
These books positively impacts readers. In part, they encourage
people to avoid racial slurs when communicating with each other and learn the influence of our history. With a readability
level for middle school, adults who read the books also relate to its themes.
Throughout the series, Coota has encounters that help
him to understand his history and the significance of compassionate communications. There is a Teacher's Guide written by
an educator that helps with classroom use.
