"This endearing picture book from Shant (The Noisy Classroom, 2020) is a beautiful ode to Black families and the bond cousins have. . . Shant's love letter to Black families and the typical relationship Black children have with their cousins is smartly complemented by Morris' bold, vivid illustrations of the cousins' summer antics, often from the main character's perspective. This story about wanting to feel included will be a storytime must!"
