A timely, powerful and much-needed picture book exploring the background to the Black Lives Matter movement for young children.
A beautifully illustrated and poignant picture book about the Black Lives Matter movement - its deep history, background and meaning - as well as a focus on the tremendous amount of work still left to do. Through author-illustrator Maxine Beneba Clarke's glorious artwork and lyrical text, this book fosters activism, being anti-racist and using your voice and your power for good.
A brave, empowering and inspiring read for all children.
Growing up in white middle-class suburban Australia, Maxine was bullied for being different. In her picture books, Maxine aims to share with children the importance of self-expression and the power of standing out. Her debut The Patchwork Bike was published to international acclaim, winning the Boston Horn Globe Award for Excellence in Children's Literature and garnering consistent starred reviews before and after publication both locally and in the US (Candlewick).
