The Primary Colors: A Children's Picture Book Celebrating the Beauty of Diversity in Our World

Dear Backers,

We’re thrilled to share that The Primary Colors books have officially arrived! The first delivery was made over breakfast yesterday at The Paper Moon Café — a perfect match for its colorful and quirky decor. 💛💙❤️

The next step is to charge for shipping and send out your books.

If you’ve already completed your survey, you’re all set! We’re working on fulfilling your orders.

If not, please complete it as soon as possible — we won’t be able to ship your order without it (unless we’ve arranged a local pickup).

Still want to place an order or donate books to an organization serving children? You can do that here. 

Thank you for your patience and continued support — we’re so close to getting The Primary Colors into your hands!

Dear Backers, 

We’ve reached the final stage of our printing journey for The Primary Colors! After a nail-biting delay while waiting for transportation quotes from our freight forwarder, we’re relieved to share that they honored the rates provided before our funding campaign began. 

Thank you for your patience during this process. We’re delighted to announce that the books were officially shipped yesterday morning from our printer in China. 🎉 

Shipping takes approximately 7–8 weeks, after which we can begin fulfilling your orders. In the meantime, please enjoy these photos of the production process and pallets of books making their way here. 💛💙❤️

👉🏼 A quick reminder: 45% of backers have not yet completed their surveys. Please take a moment to fill yours out so we can ensure your order reaches you without delay.  If you  need help to access your survey, please use the "Lost your survey?" link on our project page. 

📚 Still want to order or donate?

It’s not too late! You can still order additional copies, or if you’d like, donate books to organizations that serve children.

I hope you are as excited as we are!

Dear Backers,

I hope you are enjoying your summer and had a great July 4th! I have thrilling news—we have received the very first printed proof of The Primary Colors! 📦✨

The sample arrived last week, and I couldn’t wait to open it. It’s absolutely beautiful! The 36-page jacketed hardcover has such vibrant colors, and the title shimmers with a UV gloss finish that really makes it pop. I’ve included a short video so you can take a look and share in the exciting moment. 💛💙❤️

📝 A Quick Reminder

With the digital sample approved, the full (offset) printing has already started. So far, only 53% of our backers has completed the BackerKit survey. If you haven’t yet completed yours, please do so right away. We need your responses to finalize your shipping information and any add-ons you selected. We will not be able to ship your order to you without the information.
