Description

A vital and vibrant book answering real children's questions about racism, giving them the confidence and the tools to work towards a fairer society for all.
Using questions canvassed from children around the UK as her framework, writer, engineer and broadcaster, Yassmin Abdel-Magied gives clear context to the racism that persists today and shows how to recognize, resist and disrupt racist conversations and attitudes.

Yassmin creates a safe space for exploring an emotive and important topic. Her friendly, assured tone de-stigmatises any feelings young readers might have, while illustrations and infographics from Aleesha Nandhra provide a fresh way for readers to approach this complex issue.

Ideal as a way to open the conversation with readers aged 9 and up, nurturing compassion, encouraging ways to create change and giving them the confidence to challenge inequality and strive towards racial justice for everyone.



About the Author

YASSMIN ABDEL-MAGIED is a Sudanese diaspora writer, broadcaster, and award-winning social advocate. An award-winning speaker and globally sought-after advisor on engaging diverse communities and inclusive leadership, Yassmin has delivered keynotes and workshops in 25 countries in Arabic, English and a smattering of French.
ALEESHA NANDHRA is an illustrator and sometimes printmaker from London. Narratives and visual storytelling play a huge part in her creative practice and thematically she is drawn to work which deals with nature, culture, mental health, music and everyday life. When she isn't drawing, she's probably eating something sweet, or outside looking at flowers.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
