Here's a precious book for children by a remarkable author.
Quoted from Publishers Weekly at Amazon.com:
Writing for her "Ethiopian princess"/ granddaughter, Forche has produced a book that speaks to the needs of all children to feel acceptance and pride in who and how they are. Using the book of Genesis (with biblical references cited on each page), she stresses the variety in all creation. Of obvious interest to African American children ("God made me a beautiful brown" is a leitmotif), the book so employs the rainbow theme that it can speak to every child. . . . The spirit of this book is beyond reproach and its message desperately needed. Ages 3-9.Hardcover
Reading level: Ages 4-8
I met Carolyn Forche online. She is a radiant woman with a deep love for God and humanity. It is an honor to recommend her book.
