Hello, this book is amazing and wonderful and everyone needs to read it. Kwame Mbalia did an amazing thing and brought representation and strength to all Black children with enslaved peoples ancestry. Tristan is such a great character and I loved his narration of this book. Also Gum Baby. I love Gum Baby dearly. She’s the best.
