What is I am every good thing about?
A young Black boy describes all the wonderful things that make him who he is. He is energetic, creative, brave, clever, funny and caring, with big dreams and the determination to follow them. Although people sometimes misunderstand him, he knows his own worth and refuses to be defined by others. Told in rhythmic, uplifting verse and brought to life through expressive artwork, this picture book celebrates identity, confidence, friendship and the joy of being exactly who you are.
