Happy in Our Skin

(3) PS Illustrated by Lauren Tobia. "It's terrific to have skin. / It keeps the outsides out / and your insides in." This upbeat rhyme introduces the youngest readers to the concept of skin and celebrates the fact that it comes in many colors. Set in a diverse city neighborhood bustling with kids, the cheerful illustrations follow a multiracial family of five as they go about their day.
