Brown is beautiful. On a hike with her grandparents, a young Indian American girl makes note of all the things in the wilderness that are brown, too. From a nurturing mother bear, to the steadiness of deep twisting roots, to the beauty of a wild mustang, brown is everywhere! On her way, the girl collects the beautiful brown things she encounters as mementos for a scrap book to share with a very special new addition to her family - a baby brother. Brown is you. Brown is me. Here is an uplifting, tender exploration of beauty, joy, and self-love, with playful illustrations by rising star and South Asian illustrator Noor Sofi.
This brilliant tapestry of browns may spark discussions about identity and nature. -- Kirkus Reviews
