Opis

Nilajah broke her pretty brown doll. Will a pink doll be as much fun? Nilajah's Dolls explores the effects of Black girls playing with non-Black dolls. By showing the physical and cultural effects of euro-worship, this book encourages self-esteem and racial pride in young Black girls. Nilajah's Dolls reminds parents to consider the effects of buying certain toys for their children. Angela Freeman's "Nilajah Series" is centered on the dynamics of a loving Black family. By exploring the relationship between family members, many topics facing the Black community are addressed in age-appropriate ways. This series is designed to combat the degeneracy and myths of inferiority that Black children are inundated with daily through mainstream media outlets. As with all Angela Freeman Books, this is made for adults and children to read together. Doing so encourages dialogue between the generations. Children tend to ask many questions during and after reading this book. Make the most of their questions by encouraging them to think critically to find answers.
