My Hair Is Like the Sun

Reach for this book when you want to instill a deep sense of self-love and confidence in your child, or when you want to celebrate the unique beauty of their natural hair through a lens of wonder. It is a perfect choice for morning affirmations to start the day with positivity or as a soothing bedtime ritual that reinforces a child's connection to the natural world. This board book uses lyrical metaphors to compare Black hair textures to the sun, stars, and oceans. By pairing these poetic descriptions with photographs of real children, it provides an essential mirror for Black and biracial children to see themselves as radiant and powerful. It is ideal for babies and toddlers who are just beginning to form their sense of self-identity and physical recognition.
