I bought this for my son last year. He wasn’t even one before he got it. I’ve read it to him pretty much everyday since we purchased it. It’s his favorite book by far & we read a lot of books! I hope she comes out with another book. We need more of this in our community!

This book is not only inspirational for young men of color, it's great for everyone. My kids should grow up seeing the potential in everyone, not just people who look like them. Such a gentle, lovely book, well-written and illustrated.
