Coffee and Cream (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781665732147)

This picture book was written to shine a spotlight on how beautiful it is to have a biracial identity. Often, children who look different get asked unexpected questions about their ancestry. The character in this book, which is filled with colorful illustrations and cheerful rhymes, embraces his identity. He also learns a valuable lesson about who he is and learns how to answer the question, "What are you?" His initial reaction is "What does it matter?"-but he can't stop thinking about the question when he gets home. Then, everything becomes clearer when he has a dream about coffee and cream, which was like an answer to a riddle. This book can be used to spark a conversation about defining and recognizing racial differences. Such a talk may not be easy, but it can help children better understand their biracial heritage. Parents and young people will love reading this book over and over again!
