A vibrantly illustrated picture book celebrating Black Girl power from the author and illustrator of Black Boy, Black Boy.

Cornrows of history her magic tells
Of dreadlocks, Bantu knots, and stunning afros
Bonnets and wraps with a beautiful bow
Black Girl, Black Girl
Black Girl, Black Girl is a powerful celebration of self-love and identity for melanated girls of every shade, hair texture, size, expression, age, and passion. Told through rhythmic spoken-word poetry, this joyful book invites Black girls to imagine all they can become: athletes, artists, journalists, scientists, firefighters, lawyers, doctors, and so much more.
Brought to life through vibrant, colourful artwork from Ibe Ananaba (Black Boy, Black Boy), young readers will discover inspiring Black women from around the world, including Simone Biles, Henrietta Lacks, Harriet Tubman, and local heroines, like Dr. Carrie Best, from Nova Scotia's historic Black communities.
Bold, beautiful, and affirming, this unforgettable read-aloud encourages Black girls to dream freely, love themselves fully, and stand confidently in the truth of who they are. It reminds them to take up space, celebrate where they come from, and lift one another as they rise.
