Included in Brightly's list of recommended diverse poetry picture books for kids. "Highly recommended for home and school libraries," commented Brightly's Charnaie Gordon. "Each melodic poem eloquently conveys the beauty of different skin tones and complexions. There are also themes of family, traditions, feelings, self-love, and acceptance echoed throughout this book."
“Evocative, colorful poetry. An essential picture book.”—Kirkus (starred review)
We are color struck

His canvas with his brush of many hues
Look closely at these mirrors
these palettes of skin
Each color is rich
in its own right
