The Good Artist - Hardcover

by Brynne Gluch (Author), Bobooks (Illustrator), Kari Stageberg (Editor)

When kids ask tough questions about life, it can feel incredibly humbling as a parent to try and come up with a perfect response. Inspired by a real (imperfect) family conversation, The Good Artist was originally written as a personal gift from mother to son as a birthday present intended to memorialize the divine conversation we had concerning race and adoption. However, it became clear during the historic civil uprising in America in May of 2020 that this issue is affecting more than our family. I became compelled to share this story with other bi-racial families, not as an expert on race relations, but as a personal testimony of how we started the conversation of celebrating racial differences and being actively anti-racist through love and faith. I hope this book helps you and your family start your own conversation that changes the world for the next generation to live in deep unity.
