If hope is the thing with feathers, and happiness is a bowl of cherries, then grace might actually be a girl with crayons on a beach at dawn. That’s what columnist Sharla Dawn discovered in the weeks and months that followed a string of devastating losses—the deaths of her niece, her best friend, her mother, and her father.  

Crayon Dawn is an inspirational beach walk—both literally and metaphorically—into the light of a new day.  Driven by insomnia to wander the shores of her island home at dawn, Sharla eventually began the daily practice of greeting the sunrise with a playful purpose.  To distract herself from ruminating thoughts, she would focus on what actually unfolded before her.  She began the quest to find—in the sky, the sea, or the shoreline—every color in a big box of crayons she found in an old keepsake bin. 

Crayon Dawn is a celebration of color and of nature, a manifesto of hope and of healing, and a treasure trove of inspiration and encouragement.
