Blue Isn’t Just a Colour by Marytė Running EBOOK

Blue Isn’t Just a Colour (From the Heart Collection, Book #7) by Marytė Running is a deeply moving story about belonging, second chances, and the quiet strength it takes to heal.

Connor Morrison is eleven years old and used to starting over. In and out of foster care because of his mother’s struggles with addiction, he has learned to travel light — carrying everything he owns in a single grocery bag and guarding his heart just as tightly. New schools mean new bullies. New homes mean new goodbyes. And each move makes him feel more invisible than the last.

But this time is different.

Connor is placed at Harper’s Farm, a small hobby farm in Northern Ontario run by retired teachers Mary and Jim Harper. Surrounded by rescue animals too old, too broken, or too “unadoptable” for anyone else, Connor begins to see pieces of himself reflected back at him. A blind llama. An injured raccoon. Aging farm dogs. Each creature carries its own scars — yet each one is still worthy of love.

As Connor adjusts to farm life, structured routines, and genuine kindness, he slowly discovers that stability can feel unfamiliar — even frightening. Through new friendships, school challenges, and quiet moments in the barn, he begins to understand that “blue” is more than sadness. It can mean loyalty, strength, depth, and hope.

With warmth, honesty, and emotional depth, Marytė Running delivers a story that speaks to children who feel unseen, families who foster and adopt, and anyone who believes that love and patience can change a life.

Blue Isn’t Just a Colour is a powerful reminder that healing doesn’t happen all at once — it happens one kind word, one steady hand, and one brave step at a time.
