Where?

'Where are you from?' they say.

What they mean is,

'Why is your skin that colour?'

'Why does your hair look like that?'

I am from the mountains,

The seas and the sky.

I am from children of millions of years,

A timeline of humanity.

I am from this planet

And all others.

A heartfelt picture book that challenges racism from an exciting new voice that is both a cry of pain and a demonstration of inner strength, which takes us on an intergalactic journey past collapsing stars and glowing nebulae to remind us not of our differences but of our shared humanity.
