Pretty Little Coco Girl

by Jessica Leeann

10-year-old Ciara battles with being teased because she's a shade or two darker than the other girls in her school, and it begins to affect her grades. Despite being told she's beautiful by her family, Ciara still feels ugly because of the mean things her classmates say to her. She doesn't want to go to school anymore because she's tired of being teased.

After talking with her big cousin, Melanie, who dealt with the same issue, Ciara discovers a new level of confidence, and her parents, teachers, and peers see a shift in her grades and demeanor. Ciara learns how self-confidence is all she needs to be happy.

Pretty Little Coco Girl is a love letter to all Black girls who face the world every day and isn't told they're beautiful. Young readers will find relatable scenarios and be empowered to embrace her beautiful brown skin, despite what her peers may think about her.
