Nana Akua Goes to School

Nana Akua Goes to School is a strong choice for readers looking for Black picture books and other diverse picture books shaped by identity, school. Tricia Elam Walker builds the story around a girl worries about classmates staring at her grandmother?s facial scars before learning the story behind them. Excellent self-image and family-story title with Black intergenerational focus Especially strong for conversations about Black identity, joy, history, and self-worth. Best for ages 4 to 8, with enough depth for conversation after the last page.
