Grown: The Black Girls’ Guide to Glowing Up

Authors Melissa Cummings-Quarry and Natalie A. Carter know that growing up as a girl is often difficult, but growing up as a Black girl can be much more challenging. Grown, their carefully curated and lovingly crafted guide, is an educational and fun book aimed at teaching young Black girls (and other girls of colour) how to navigate the different challenges they may face.

Written in a conversational style, the book delves into a host of different topics, ranging from skin and hair care tips to sympathetic but pragmatic explorations of race and society. As the authors proclaim, this book is a love song to Black girls everywhere.
