"This is an inspiring picture book to use with children in the early grades who may have questions about current issues regarding self-concept, appearance, and social action."
Booklist
"I have been going through this with my son one page a day because there is so much to unpack on one page in the words and in the illustrations. They affirm and uplift Black people in such a beautiful way. I love it so much."
Naomi O'Brien, @readlikearockstar
"An uplifting homage to Black potential, resilience, and achievement."
