Raising cultural sensitive kids can be a challenge. YOU... Have to expose them to a wealth of diverse books and products. "Straight Talk" is a great step in that direction.The book uses hair as vehicle to spur conversation about the common cultural experience of hair-shaming that many African American girls experience. The unique use of actual historical facts gives the child a history lesson and teaches them self-acceptance. Sisters Morgan and Maddie give their mother nothing but trouble when it comes to combing their hair. They try many tricks to get out of the process and, more importantly, are convinced that getting a hair relaxer will be the answer to all their troubles.Their mother takes them on a historical journey to find out the history behind why they should love their hair. The message of self-acceptance transcends gender and race. Please add this book to your child's growing library of diverse books. Winner of an Indie Excellence Book Award!
