Synopsis
"A Black child explores his shifting emotions throughout the
year...Summertime is filled with joy—skateboarding and playing
basketball—until his community is deeply wounded by a police
shooting. As fall turns to winter and then spring, fear grows into
anger, then pride and peace... illustrator Noa Denmon articulates the
depth and nuances of a child's experiences following a police
shooting—through grief and protests, healing and community—with
washes of color as vibrant as his words. [This] narrative...can help
all readers—children and adults alike—talk about the feelings
hiding deep inside each of us." -Goodreads website.
