Featuring Sylviane Diouf, author of Bintou’s Braids, about a little girl growing up in a West African village; Toyomi Igus, author of Two Mrs. Gibsons, a story about her bicultural, biracial family; and Selina Alko, author and illustrator of B is for Brooklyn and I’m Your Peanut Butter Big Brother, a lyrical tale about a big-brother-to-be wondering what his new little sibling will look like.
