Publisher's Description

▼▲

"We are brown. We are handsome. We are excellent."

An inspiring anthem for boys bearing melanin of all kinds, Brown Boys Rule centers and celebrates boys of color. Ashok Banker and Brittney Bond bring this uplifting poem to life showcasing the empowering diversity of brown boys as engineers, artists, peaceful protesters, adventurers, kings, and leaders in their communities. One part love letter, two parts battle anthem, this picture book is a powerful reminder for boys of color that they may be kids, but they are strong and tough--as well as joyful and kind.
