Skin Again by bell hooks and Chris Raschka

Rating: ★★★★

Genre: Children’s lit, poetry

Medium: Hardcover

Synopsis: bell hooks’ poem ‘Skin Again’ is reimagined through Raschka’s illustrations.

Review: This is a beautiful version of hooks’ ‘Skin Again.’  Paired with Chris Raschka’s fantastic illustrations, this book hits all the points.  It questions what skin means–what race means–and how we construct it.

I will forever applaud Raschka for illustrating such important literary pieces such as this one, and I’d definitely have to recommend it to anybody who is looking to restore their faith in humanity.
