She chose to embrace her multiracial heritage because she was taught that she could. Her hope is that this book will help children to realize that it is possible to integrate their multiple racial identities.</strong><br /> "<em>I'm Mixed</em> is a simple story which approaches how we describe ourselves from an early age, from the perspective of a young girl who has a black father and a white mother. It encourages children to embrace their appearance without labeling themselves as one race or another. In an increasingly diverse world, acceptance, inclusion and self-awareness are imperative, and Maggy Williams gives us a great starting point for conversation."<br /> --Lori Siesto, MME-MT, MT-BC, author, educator and music therapist<br /> <br /> "Maggy Williams' text comes straight from the heart, helping us all say goodbye to the days when a child had to own only one identity. This book is a loving message to all children, regardless of ethnicity. Love who you are, be who you are meant to be and find the joy in being you!"<br /> --Ellen E. Sadler, children's book author and award-winning educator<br /> <br /> "At a time when so many feel excluded and less-than, <em>I'm Mixed</em>, by Maggy Williams, reminds us that everyone is to be appreciated and celebrated for who and what they are."<br /> --Cyrus Webb, media personality, author, and speaker</p><p>"Talk about an empowering storybook! If ever this book was needed, it is now! Maggy Williams inspires courage, self-respect and strength in children who are 'mixed' and children of all colors."<br /> --DeeDee Ginns-Gruenberg, <em>The Self-Esteem Shop</em></p><p>Learn more at www.LHPress.com</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"<em>I'm Mixed</em> is a simple story which approaches how we describe ourselves from an early age, from the perspective of a young girl who has a black father and a white mother.

We are always on the look out for books, movies, shows that have representation. Because representation is EVERYTHING in a child's eyes. I'm Mixed is a great book, it is a very simple read - my kids are 4 and 6. This book could easily be read as early as 6 months up until school age, as a powerful reminder through the years before headed into school that being mixed is beautiful and NORMAL. The illustrations are captivating and show a mixed family - the white mother, the black father.<br /> My kids loved the book, they were interested and not distracted. It was short, sweet, to the point. Which we need more of because kids attentions spans are not long. Also - the author herself is a woman of color and this is something we need more of! Thank you for writing this book for my children and other mixed children around the world!"<br /> --Bethany Blake, South Portland, Maine</p><br>
