This morning at Kirkus, I have two new picture books (one will be on shelves in September) all about defying labels. That is here.

Last week, I talked here with Faith Ringgold. I’m following up today with two spreads (one above) from her new book, We Came to America (Knopf, May 2016).

Enjoy!



“We came to America, Every color, race, and religion, From every country in the world. Some of us were already here Before the others came.”
