A story of how skin colour raised questions for one little girl of mixed heritage and how she began to understand her unique and culturally diverse family. Confused that her skin colour is different to the rest of the family, Tyler goes on a thoughtful journey of discovery to establish her identity. Tyler finds acceptance and belonging in her sister, regardless of their differences in hair type and skin shades, the unity comes from both being of mixed race heritage (Black African and White British). Not only that...they come from a wonderful mix of white and black family members which is certainly worthy of a celebration!




Beautifully animated and written, this book addresses issues of identity for young children of mixed heritage. Corinne Archard speaks from her personal experience in order to support young growing minds with similar questions about who they are, and where they come from.




I am Brown is a simple story of discovery of self-love, which provokes thought and discussion between the reader and child to help unravel their thoughts, feelings and understanding of where they fit in. Written and designed to open up conversations about family roots and mixing of cultures, I am Brown provides a platform for children to openly talk about their sense of belonging and ultimately address any insecurities.




Dipali at Kidliomag: This book develops a great pride and understanding in those children who come from multicultural and diverse backgrounds. This book also teaches about self-pride, self-love and empowers young minds to understand their uniqueness. Illustrations truly reflect the beauty of brown and give a beautiful message of self-love, diversity and inclusion.
