Designed as a touch-and-feel board book for very young children, *La Journ* introduces Orange Shirt Day and the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. It explains the day’s connection to the experiences of Survivors of Indian Residential Schools, their families, and children who did not come home, while presenting its observance as a time for remembrance, healing, and reconciliation. The format also offers an early introduction to the idea that every child matters. Written by Phyllis Webstad, founder of the Orange Shirt Day movement, the book frames a difficult history for a first conversation with little ones.
