Publisher's Summary
Jazmyn Simon's debut is a moving love letter to children struggling to accept themselves inside and out—exactly as they are. This book was inspired by a conversation between the author and her daughter.
I was shown all the smiles in the entire world. I looked at all of the many bright smiles until I found my favorite: your smile.
After comparing herself to other little girls, Irie confides in her mama that she feels something is wrong with her, that she’s not perfect as she is. And so Irie’s mama tells the magical story of how Irie was intentionally and wonderfully made. In fact, Irie is made up of all her mother's favorite things: sparkling eyes, a bright smile, and a kind heart.
Actor and activist Jazmyn Simon's tender book emphasizes the unique beauty and strength of all children, encouraging them to love their most perfect selves.
