About the book
What's inside
Fifty pages of Black women moving through music: a record held close to the chest, hands raised in praise, a woman at the piano, a cassette tape wrapped in flowers, notes rising around a crown of natural hair. The book runs in five chapters, among them Gospel, Soul and R&B, and every design comes with an affirmation, so it can be colored quietly with a record on or read aloud with friends. The musicians are original, stylized figures rather than portraits of real people, so the faces and the colors are yours to decide. It is part of the Brown Sugar Collection, coloring books that center Black women, Black families and Black culture, drawn in our detailed style: fuller scenes and more line work than the bold and easy shelf, still in large print with clear outlines. The book is 8.5 inches square, and no design is printed on the back of another.
