The illustrations in this book are similar to John Steptoe's first book. I like how the images look like they are done in clay but I think it is just paint. However, the images are beautiful and different. The colors contrast beautifully together. They also are more on the blue and red hues. The illustrations i believe make this book so beautiful. ( )

This book is about a boy who does not know where his family is from. He ask around and he finds out that his family is from Africa. This is a good book to read when you are teaching geography. ( )
