All Because You Matter
Tami Charles
A poetic second-person message speaks directly to Black children, connecting them to the universe and to their ancestors. A gentle parental voice follows one child from birth and first steps through school experiences, including learning to read and having a name mispronounced, as well as struggles in the wider world. Collage and watercolor scenes show Black people and colorful quilts that evoke generations of ancestors.
