NAMED ONE OF THE TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY Chicago Tribune - The New York Public Library - Publishers Weekly AND ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The New York Times Book Review - Time - BuzzFeed - Esquire - Library Journal - Kirkus Reviews " How brown is too brown? " " Can Indians be racist? " " What does real love between really different people look like? " Like many six-year-olds, Mira Jacob's half-Jewish, half-Indian son, Z, has questions about everything . At first they are innocuous enough, but as tensions from the 2016 election spread from the media into his own family, they become much, much more complicated. Trying to answer him honestly, Mira has to think back to where she's gotten her own answers: her most formative conversations about race, color, sexuality, and, of course, love. Written with humor and vulnerability, this deeply relatable graphic memoir is a love letter to the art of conversation--and to the hope that hovers in our most difficult questions. LONGLISTED FOR THE PEN/OPEN BOOK AWARD "Jacob's earnest recollections are often heartbreaking, but also infused with levity and humor.

  1. Jailman Tough

    Absolutely PERFECT transaction! I ordered this book mid April, and when I hadn't seen any activity for a few days I decided to contact the seller (normally items paid are usually shipped within 2-3 days and this was going a week, so it raised a red flag). Due to my own ignorance, I was reassured immediately that the book's cover was being hand crafted and would take time, explaining the extra time. Long story short, this was worth the wait!Very responsive seller, HIGHLY recommended. THANK YOU!

    Everything is fine, but the seller told me I could have an engraving placed on the cover. I sent them a picture of the engraving, and they acknowledged they got it, but when I got the item they never did it. In addition they claim they never got my picture which is not true, seeing I have their email response. I was disappointed by this, but I would have gotten this book even without the engraving, so all is well.

    I was very happy to see how well packaged my book I ordered was, double rain-proof, because it was left on the steps and was quite wet from heavy rain. But, inside double wrapping, it was very dry and in great condition. Very happy with seller!
