In My Skin
With a focus on diversity, this picture book promotes acceptance—of one another and oneself. “In my skin” is the recurring refrain of the prose poem that winds through the book, stretching across soft illustrations that play with contrasting tones of yellow and blue. An affirming array of children demonstrate what it means to “hope,” “laugh,” and, ultimately, “belong” in the skin and body we are given.
