Jade has a special way of seeing the world.....She just doesn’t know it yet. It is going to take a teacher’s curiosity to help Jade understand why she sees letters as colors in her brain. Jade has synesthesia. Colors play a huge part in the way she thinks! By working together, Jade, her parents, her teacher, and her classmates can all see the world through each other’s eyes. This book also contains information and research for parents of children who exhibit synesthesia.
