Reviews
"The energetic text reads like a smooth stream of affirmations. . . . The cartoonlike illustrations use bright colors, cheerful faces, and confident poses to emphasize the power of the child's positive self-image. . . . With the resonance of the titular saying and additional affirming phrases in the child's assured voice, this book will lend confidence to Black children and remind all readers of the dignity and contributions of African American people. A joyful tribute to share with young children." -- Kirkus Reviews
