IS YOUR HAIR LIKE MINE?

Inspired by the famous White House photograph of five-year-old Jacob Philadelphia touching then President Barack Obama’s hair, Carole Boston Weatherford’s powerful text is an ode to all the things that make Black and Brown kids beautiful, strong, resilient, and powerful. From jazz great John Coltrane to astronaut and engineer Guion Bluford to civil rights lawyer Benjamin Crump, this book is a celebration of Black history and excellence.
