Ratings and reviews

Ridiculous these books are racist. We live in a world of color not black and white. I guarantee the author is black and has hate towards anyone not black this should not be in a grade school. Shameful.

This beautiful book helps introduce important words and concepts to young children. We are all responsible for helping heal the world's wounds, and for teaching compassion and empathy to the next generations.

Racist as it gets... written by a lowly piece of garbage that is racist against all colors
