• My Afro is a Rising Sun by YARAM YAHU. Black afros are more than just afros. They are a symbol of Black joy. They remind us to embrace our identity, cherish our culture, and remember our heritage. This stunning picture book is an ode to Black hair and a reminder to all children to see the beauty in other people — even those who don’t look like them.
• When Black Girls Dream Big by TANISIA MOORE. In this inspiring tribute to Black girl pride and excellence, a young child discovers her place in a radiant heritage. As she meets twelve extraordinary Black women—historic and contemporary heroines who have blazed a trail for her own future success—she internalizes their strength and sets out to change the world in her own way. Just like them, she can reach her dreams. And readers will discover that they can reach theirs too.
