It's Just Skin, Silly!
Regular price $19.95 Save $-19.95Hi!! I'm Epi Dermis, but my friends just call me Skin!
Raise your hands if you sweat, tan, itch, have hair, or have freckles!
I've been feeling pretty sensitive lately because everybody has something to say about me. But people don't always tell the truth.
My color doesn't make me fast, strong, smart, or scary. I just want to shout, "It's just skin, silly!"
"[A]n irresistibly brilliant, pitch-perfect page-turner that should be a must-read in every Pre-K and Elementary School in our country." — Henry Louis Gates Jr
An illustrated children's book on the evolution of skin color, based on a collective 40+ years of peer-reviewed research from expert anthropologist Dr. Nina Jablonski and historian Dr. Holly Y. McGee, with a special foreword from celebrated literary critic and historian Dr. Henry Louis Gates, Jr.
Meet Epi Dermis, your kid's quirky, clever guide to the origin of skin color! Using simple science and interactive activities, Epi takes readers on an adventure through human history to find out why skin is the hardest working organ in the body business. Whether it’s how migration and climate changed our skin's need for melanin, to why sweat is your body’s secret superpower, Epi’s got all the facts—and uses them to challenge false narratives about race and give kids the information they need to do the same.

"¡Hola! Soy Epi Dermis, pero mis amigos me llaman ¡Piel!
¡Levanten la mano si sudan, se broncean, tienen comezón, tienen pelo o tienen pecas!
Últimamente me he sentido un poco sensible porque todos tienen algo que decir sobre mí. Pero la gente no siempre dice la verdad.
Mi color no me hace rápido, fuerte, inteligente ni aterrador. Solo quiero gritar: "¡Es solo piel, oye!"

Oh Give Me A Home
Regular price $19.95 Save $-19.95From Author Jane Kurtz, winner of the School Library Journal Best Of The Year and numerous other awards.
In verse, Oh Give Me a Home relates the story of a girl’s inside-out view of America as she journeys from Ethiopia, searches for friends and belonging.
Kirkus Starred Review
Selected as a Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Book.
In elementary school, Jane knows that Maji, Ethiopia, cool and green, perched on a mountainside of waterfalls and monkeys, is the perfect place to live. Or it would be perfect if she had a pet or a best friend.
Jane is full of ideas that include schemes for an animal to play with. A real pet, not the dik dik that dies, the monkey that tries to bite her fingers, nor the elusive cat that lives in the shed and has just absconded with her litter of kittens. But her plans are derailed as Jane learns she is to move back to America with her family.
America and Africa collide as Jane tries to answer the simple question, “Where am I from?” Entering grade school in suburban America for the first time, will she find a best friend a continent away from her real life in Africa? Or is America–where she meets her relatives for laughter and frolicking and big holiday meals–her real home?
