Now in paperback, the story of a young girl discovering all the wonderful and beautiful objects around her that are black.
In this lively, poetic celebration of the colour black, a young girl experiences the wonder and joy of all the black objects she finds around her. The letters and words on the pages of a book, a limousine, a big workhorse, beetles, firefighter's boots, piano keys, and more all capture the young girl's attention in joyously illustrated spreads that combine seemingly unrelated objects in imaginative interactions.

Exuberant acrylic paintings keep the pages turning in this African
American girl’s imaginative ode to the color black…
The double-page illustrations combine imaginary scenes with more
realistic moments, and show the child interacting with her brother
and her parents.”
