Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

The New York Times best-selling illustrator of Vice President Kamala Harris's S uper Heroes Are Everywhere creates a joyful, positive, read-together book celebrating Black and Brown girls with natural hair. Kids everywhere will be chanting its celebratory chorus: "I love being me!"

Full 'fro, cute bow! I love being me! Smart girl, cool curls! I love being me!

Girls will love seeing strong, happy reflections of themselves in this vibrant, rhythmic book full of beautiful Black hairstyles. From a cute crop to pom-pom puffs, adorable illustrations of girls with gorgeous braids, blowouts, and bantus grace each page, side by side with a positive message that will make girls cheer. It's a great read-aloud to promote self-esteem for girls of all ages, building and growing the foundation of self-love (and hair love!) and letting every girl know "You are made beautiful!"
