Book Details

As the seasons turn, Maisie rides her bull in and out of Dada's tall tales. Her Mama wears linen and plays the viola. Her Dada wears kente cloth and plays the marimba. They come from different places, but they hug her in the same way. And most of all, they love her just the same. 


A joyful celebration of a mixed-race family and the love that binds us all together.


“Opens a window into what it can look and feel like to grow up in a biracial, multinational family that’s rich in story”

-Kirkus Reviews, STARRED
