Jay and Nia are the children of two worlds, and as they will discover, they can enjoy the best of both.

Created to be socially and environmentally conscious, I AM MIXED is printed on 100% recycled paper. "I Am Mixed is an invaluable teaching tool that all children from all races can learn from." - HALLE BERRY (from her foreword) "My son, as well as all of his friends, are mixed and they don't know any different. I don't know who this book is better for, the children of this generation or their parents. This book is a wonderful celebration of the beauty of coming from mixed ethnicities and cultures!" - JAIME PRESSLY (My Name is Earl) "Such a cute book with great illustrations and a sweet message." - HEIDI KLUM (America's Got Talent) "As a mother of a mixed-race child, I hope my daughter grows up to be proud of who she is and what makes her unique. I Am Mixed is a beautiful, sweet story that encourages children to look within themselves and appreciate the distinct heritage that makes each person special. It reminds us that our diverse cultures and traditions are things that should be honored and treasured." - LAURA LING Some of my favorite books as a kid were the Giving Tree and Bringing the Rain to Kapiti Plain. This is right there with those. Really. No tissue stuffing. It's beautifully illustrated and sincere. Well done Stranger Kids." - AFUA RICHARDSON (Top Cow Comics)

Absolutely love this book! This book is special in everyway from the illustration to the poetic verses and analogies. Adorable!!! My daughters and I had so much fun reading this book full of life and culture, it was exciting and intriguing! My family is very mixed and my daughters fathers family is as well, English is their second language. They are Haitian natives with Filipino background, and myself African American Indian chinese and Caucasian. My daughter wanted to know so much about her mixed background and asked so many questions while enjoying the end activities. She felt special and proud to come from such a mixed family and understood that it's normal to share the same background as someone but have different shades of light and dark brown. Since attending school My daughter became a bit insecure about her skin tone and hair and very frustrated and asked questions like why am I darker than you and my sister, this book helped her gain much appreciation, acceptance and understanding!
This book was the sweetest thing I've read in a whole. Excellent for children to learn about acceptance and identifying their history. Very positive and uplifting
I tell my son, J.D., that I love him and I read him this book. And as a five year old, who is facing the thin line from child curiosity to bullying.. and wants to cut his fro due to his insecurities that other kids have given him, he is reminded of how awesome and mixed he is.
My kids are mixed and I think they would enjoy this book. I am going to have my son's read this even though my oldest son may look at me funny (he's 12...you understand). But my 7 year old will enjoy this. Love the quote from Halle Berry in the book, too. Happy reading :-)
This book is a must have for any8 mixed child. The pictures and words are very heart warming. It really touched me to read this sweet book to my 5 year old. There are also discussion questions in the back to discuss what it is to be mixed with your child. A great way to introduce the topic to little ones.
This is a beautifully crafted and illustrated book especially written for children. My grandson loved it, and I did too. Especially relevant in today's society.I Am Mixed (I Am Book)
I bought this book for my cousin& his wife & I have to say I was a bit apprehensive to do so because I didn't know the context of the book& boy was I surprised! I LOVE THIS BOOK& so did the mother to be!!! This book teaches the child that it's okay to be a little bit of everything and that's what makes you so special! I plan on purchasing it for myself just to keep in my library!!! Beautifully done!!!!
This book is so amazing. My son is about to be 3. He doesn't see that there is any difference between him and his cousin. He doesn't fully grasp this book but he loves the illustrations and just reading it. I love that there are discussion questions in the back. We will definitely be on the look out for more of the I am.... books.
