A review by aliferuz
Sulwe by Lupita Nyong'o

5.0

I fell in love at the very first page. The way the author make the analogy between Sulwe's family complexion and dawn-dusk-noon is so poetic. It mesmerized me and at the same time it tugged my heart. And I love the story about The Siblings Day and Night. That's such a brilliant way to tell children how to feel beautiful about themselves no matter how the color of their skins are. And the illustrations!!! God, they're so breathtakingly beautiful. Dreamy yet strong.
