Reviews
"Grammy nominees the Alphabet Rockers offer a lyrical exploration of solidarity. The book begins by following a short-haired Black child... [who] invites readers to get to know them, highlighting using one's voice to both speak one's truth and amplify others'. Subsequent pages explore other frequently marginalized experiences from the first-person perspective, as Evans's warm digital art portrays bright, inclusive spreads... earnest advocacy and heartening message." -- Publishers Weekly
"Exuberantly affirming and infectiously joyful." -- Kirkus
"...a diverse group of kids showcasing their experiences and the need for everyone to listen and raise their voices in protest or support." -- Booklist
"This title... strives to convey to the reader to love yourself, appreciate who you are, be proud, and to find your own voice. The simplistic, relatable text can lead to discussions about topics such as differences, race, and gender identity." -- School Library Connection
