Look high,
look low,
look everywhere . . .
The wonderful color black is there!
Join a young girl as she discovers all the wonderful things around her that are black.
The letters that live
on each page of a book.
The hole in the ground
that's a little mole's nook.
The gleaming paint on a limousine.
The braided hair of a stately queen.
The fun and excitement never stop in this joyous and playful book. So what are you waiting for? Come celebrate Black All Around!
