New York Times bestselling author and CNN analyst Bakari Sellers makes his picture book debut in this lyrical ode to his heritage and what he wants to pass on to his own children, with artwork by rising talent Reggie Brown.

“When you meet someone for the first time, they might ask, ‘Who are your people?’ and ‘Where are you from?’”

This is a spare, inspiring tribute to the roots that help shape young children into whoever they want to be. The poetic text describes how it takes a village to raise a child and that all of us stand on the shoulders of those who came before. Like I Am Enough and Eyes that Kiss in the Corners, this book will resonate with readers of all ages.
