Kendi’s choice to speak directly to new parents in this format works quite well. His succinct, impactful prose makes for an accessible guide to anti-racism for everyone. Lukashevsky’s artwork elevates the text even more with brilliant color and charming details that will inspire readers to linger on each page. The timely and relevant anti-racist message so excellently delivered in this book makes it worthy of a place on all library shelves." -- School Library Journal
