NCSS-CBC 2 2 Notable Social Studies Trade Book

One of Bank Street amp rsquo s 2 2 Best Children amp rsquo s Books of the Year

STARRED REVIEW! amp ldquo Armed with her own unique power phrase-'I amp rsquo m Lulu Lovington, the ONE and only! amp rsquo -Lulu feels empowered to handle any questions that come her way amp hellip . This book does more than simply tell a single story of biracial experience: it talks about navigating everyday racism in sensitive, but frank, ways. This affirmation is just as important as the power phrase amp hellip . All children will benefit from this pitch-perfect discussion of race, identity, complexity, and beauty. amp rdquo --Kirkus 


Lulu loves her family, but people are always asking

What are you?
 
Lulu hates that question. Her brother inspires her to come up with a power phrase so she can easily express who she is, not what she is.  
 
Includes a note from the author, sharing her experience as the only biracial person in her family and advice for navigating the complexity of when both parents do not share the same racial identity as their children.

Jennie Poh was born in England and grew up in Malaysia (in the jungle). Pen and paper by her side at all times she loved drawing princesses and writing stories. At the age of ten she moved back to England and trained as a ballet dancer. After failing her art A-level Jennie decided the art world was definitely for her so she studied Fine Art at The Surrey Institute of Art amp amp Design as well as Fashion Illustration at Central St.Martins. Illustrating is the reason she gets washed and dressed in the morning. She loves drawing quirky beautiful girly stuff and works with ink, watercolor, collage, origami paper, pencils, and usually ends up wanting to bash her computer. Jennie lives in Surrey, England.
