In the tradition of the bestselling Ophelia Speaks, a collection of provocative essays by teenage girls of color

My Sisters' Voices is a passionate and poignant collection of writings from teenage girls of African American, Hispanic, Asian American, Native American, and biracial backgrounds. With candor and grace, they speak out on topics that are relevant not only to themselves and their peers but to anyone who is raising, teaching, or nurturing young women of color.

As adolescents, women, and minorities, these young authors represent a demographic that has had no voice of its own, a group often spoken for but rarely given the opportunity to be heard. Now these young women have a chance to stand up and be counted, to present their own unique perspectives in fresh and astonishing ways. Here you'll find a Native American girl writing about the bumps in her relationship with her best friend, who's white; a Korean American girl who wishes she could help her mother understand that it's okay to socialize with boys as well as girls; and a biracial girl who feels she must be the designated spokesperson for blacks when she's around whites, for whites when she's around blacks, and for biracial people around everyone. These personal and inspiring stories about family, friendship, sex, love, poverty, loss, and oppression make My Sisters' Voices essential reading for young women of all backgrounds.

My niece LOVED this for her 3rd birthday
Format: Board book
My niece LOVED this for her 3rd birthday. She is really into baby animals and books, and she loved pressing the buttons (just like I did at her age). The illustrations are of course amazing. The pages are sturdy, but the way it was shipped the back cover was bent at the blue plastic part. Still wonderful, I put this on a wishlist for my future kids.

A fun , interactive animal book by the amazing Eric Carley.
Format: Board book
My grandson loves to read this book. Even though he's only a year and a half old, he is engaged by pushing the sound button that matches the animal on each page.
