Pros
At one of interview, Booker spoke out about her book. She said that Hey Carter! Books is on a mission to increase representation for Black Boys. HCB offers children’s books, apparel, and accessories. The Hey Carter! Children’s Book Series consists of three books (My Brown Skin, Brown Boy Joy, King for a Day) focused on building self-identity in early readers. Each book is filled with affirmations allowing parents to speak life into their child as they read to them. At HCB, we are showing the world “happy Black boys living their happy Black lives.” [2]
The story is easy to follow and it has a great illustration. One of reference book the parents can buy for their children's book collection. [3]
