A celebration of self-expression and the power of using your voice,
centering Black children, and exploring the many things they can do,
create, and say to make their mark.
Look around! Can you see?
The many spaces, places, and ways to
show the world all that you can be?
From painting, music, and slam poetry, to engineering, protesting, and
photography, a young narrator journeys through her neighborhood,
encouraging readers to explore all the many ways they can express
themselves. A gorgeously illustrated and powerful celebration of
self-expression shows children that there are so many spaces and
opportunities to use their voices--and show the world exactly who they
are.
What will you show the world?
