Presents a book for young children that introduces the topic of race. Tells readers that there are many different colors of skin; skin is beautiful and strong; and everyone's color comes from melanin. Lists some of the color words we use to describe people, and reminds kids that skin color can't tell us who people are on the inside. Also details how long ago a group of white people made up the idea of race to make white people seem better and give them more power; believing this is racism, which is all around us. Encourages kids to speak out against racism, and offers tips for parents.
