About the Book

BROWN LITTLE ME is a cleverly written children's poem designed to celebrate and appreciate the blessing of having brown skin. From a child's perspective, the reader gets to experience an array of fun, loving and life activities of children who look just like them! BROWN LITTLE ME is a "must have" book that encourages self love and self esteem. The beauty of this work is that its illustrations depict children of every complexion; from the lightest of brown skin to the darkest brown skin--each with unique color of eyes, varying hair color and texture.


About the Author

Author Karen Tucker calls BROWN LITTLE ME a "love letter" to the little girl inside herself who struggled with many of the same social issues children of color deal with today concerning identity, fitting in and self acceptance. Tucker, a studying esthetician specializing in the beautification, cleansing and preservation of the health of the skin, launches this book as the beginning of a movement to unite the school system, families, and the global community in the dire need to uplift, embrace and teach children of color about their skin and its beauty.
