Description

I raise my fist and I declare . . . that it's ok to rock our hair! A young girl celebrates her right under laws such as the CROWN Act to style her hair in any way she sees fit in this empowering tribute to the unique and special ways that people can rock their hair.

At first, it can be hard to stand out. But with the encouragement and support of family, friends, and the community, one girl discovers the joy in standing up and stepping out as she relishes in the beauty of her hair in twist-outs, braids, ribbons and more. Told in bouncing rhymes with engaging pictures and backmatter about the CROWN Act (legislation enacted in multiple states and introduced at the federal level), author-illustrator Angel Tate weaves together themes of confidence, individual expression, and advocating for yourself and others.

About the Author

Angel Tate has been creating stories since she was a kid growing up on the south side of Chicago. The author/illustrator studied English Literature and Radiologic Science in college and had a long career working in healthcare. She realized she had a passion for writing children's books while raising her three girls. Unable to find books with characters that represented the people closest to her heart, she went to work, creating what she didn't see. Now, Angel is trying hard to make books that show kids that they not only exist everywhere in this world, but they belong there as well. Book One of her chapter book series, Parker Peterzak Has the Big School Blues, was published in September 2023 by Sunday Dinner Publishing. I ROCK MY HAIR will be Angel Tate's debut as an author/illustrator.
