I’ve had this book with me since I was in Elementary school and I’m so happy that I’ve kept it all this time. Mufaro’s Beautiful Daughters is a fable, showing children why it is that they should be kind and the consequences of being mean and selfish, not only that but it also shows that little black girls can be and are beautiful.
As an adult I don’t like the aspect of only the girls going through trials to make sure that they were worthy of marriage to the king, but otherwise its a very thoughtful story that I would love for my future children to also experience.
