Great books! Well written & illustrated
I love that this series provides more detailed information than similar biographical books written for kids but the language is still age appropriate and the pictures are engaging for children. My 7yr old really enjoyed learning about Rosa Parks at school and wanted to learn more- she was very excited when this arrived (& it is something my 4yr old can still enjoy too). I plan to order more from this series and would recommend to anyone!

Great way to explain segregation to our little ones
My husband and I read this together before reading it to our 3 year old and we were a little nervous about the questions she would ask. We instinctively want to shield her from the ugly parts of the world, but of course that's not realistic. As a white mom to mixed baby, I know there are things she will experience that I will never be able to understand or explain to her. But, we have to give our babies the chance to learn because in order to understand our present, we have to understand our past. After reading this book with her, she became a little obsessed with figuring out who in our family is black and who is white and she was a little confused about the fact that she is both. Something I never would have thought would be confusing to her. Since then, she has been able to wrap her brain around it a little better. She doesn't fully understand the civil rights movement (duh, she's 3) but I am glad we are laying groundwork for her to understand what it means to her.

Great for teaching about racism
This book is perfect for introducing ideas about racism to children. The pictures are great and the story is clear, even to a younger child. My daughter is 3 and thoroughly enjoys the story. I like that each page isnt too wordy so it holds her attention

Love this series
Love this series, love that they open up discussion points for adults to their children about rasicm and abuse. Not easy topics to cover with a child but it’s important to let them know these things are out there. Don’t be scared of them, but to understand it’s not normal and it’s not ok.
