Summary:

"For fans of Matt de la Pena and Grace Byers, My Afro Is a Rising Sun is a dazzling picture book inviting BIPOC children to fully express themselves, celebrate their Blackness, and embrace their ancestry. Black afros are more than just afros. They are a symbol of Black joy. They remind us to embrace our identity, cherish our culture, and remember our heritage. This stunning picture book is an ode to Black hair and a reminder to all children to see the beauty in other people—even those who don’t look like them." -- Amazon
