Brown ~ Nancy Johnson James

Brown: The Many Shades of Love

Written by Nancy Johnson James
Illustrated by Constance Moore

I absolutely love this book! It celebrates the color of our skin and cleverly names many of the shades of brown. From mama’s chocolate brown and daddy’s autumn leaf brown to Grammy’s honey brown and Papa’s caramel brown. With beautiful watercolor illustrations, these and many more shades of brown skin are both highlighted and named! Read more >>
