Mechal Renee Roe, illustrator of Vice President Kamala Harris's
Super Heroes Are Everywhere, creates a joyful, positive, read-together
book celebrating boys with natural black hair that will have kids
everywhere chanting: "I am born to be awesome!"**
When the stars shine, the world is mine! I am born to be awesome! My
hair is free, just like me! I am born to be awesome!
Boys will love seeing strong, happy reflections of themselves in this
vibrant, rhythmic book full of hip Black hairstyles. From a 'fro-hawk to
mini-twists and crisp cornrows, adorable illustrations of boys with cool
curls, waves, and afros grace each page, accompanied by a positive
message that will make kids cheer. It's a great read-aloud to promote
positive self-esteem to boys of all ages, building and growing the
foundation of self-love (and hair love!) and letting every boy know that
"You are born to be awesome!"
