Une enfant différente de sa mère découvre la beauté et un sentiment d'appartenance, dans ce nouveau livre de la créatrice de Les étoiles m'ont chanté ton nom, un livre à succès du New York Times.

L'endroit préféré d'Izzy est dans les bras de sa maman, peau contre peau, en sécurité et au chaud. Un soir, blottie sur les genoux de sa mère, Izzy constate une chose qu'elle n'avait jamais remarquée auparavant: sa peau est de la couleur du chocolat, alors que celle de sa mère est de la couleur du sable.

Quand Izzy se rend compte qu'elle est aussi différente de sa mère sur d'autres plans, elle se sent triste et confuse. Elle souhaite tant être jolie comme sa maman!

En tirant des leçons de la nature et en répétant sa douce berceuse, la maman d'Izzy l'encourage à reconnaître sa propre beauté, tout à fait unique. Cette histoire d'une enfant née de parents d'origines différentes, qui navigue entre identité et appartenance, s'inspire de l'expérience personnelle de l'autrice, Tasha Spillett-Sumner, qui est afro-autochtone. Un texte lyrique et des illustrations chaleureuses et vivantes illustrent le parcours d'Izzy, qui apprend à célébrer les différences qui rendent sa beauté unique, et le lien avec sa mère qui transcende les traits physiques.

A child who looks different from her mother finds beauty and belonging in this new book from the creator of the New York Times bestseller I Sang You Down from the Stars.

Izzy's favorite place to be is in Mama's arms -- skin to skin, safe and warm. One night, cuddled up on Mama's lap, Izzy notices something she's never noticed before: her skin is the color of chocolate, but Mama's skin is the color of sand.

When Izzy realizes she's different from Mama in other ways, too, she feels sad and confused. She wants to be beautiful like Mama! But Mama addresses Izzy's disappointment with a gentle, loving refrain: You're part of me, and I'm part of you. I'm beautiful like me, and you're beautiful like you. Finding lessons from nature and repeating her affirming message, Mama encourages Izzy to see her own unique beauty.

This story about a multiracial child navigating identity and belonging draws from author Tasha Spillett-Sumner's own experience growing up as an Afro-Indigenous girl. Lyrical text and warm, lively illustrations show Izzy's journey as she learns to celebrate the differences that make her uniquely beautiful, and the connection to her mother that transcends physical traits.
