Synopsis

From New York Times bestselling author, Brittney Cooper, comes a heartwarming story of love and resilience that explores the powerful force of a mother-daughter bond.All my life, my mama has said two words to me. "You're fine." It's just two little words. But those two words can mean a lot.When a young girl faces tough obstacles or hard days, her mama always soothes her with two loving words: "you're fine." Incredibly simple, yet powerfully affirming, she discovers that being fine can mean so many things -- sometimes it means having courage and speaking out, sometimes it means being proud of who you are. And when learning that even strong mamas can have tough days too -- she realizes that "I'm fine" can simply mean things are not okay, but they will be. But most importantly, it's a reminder from her mother that she will always be enough.

Quotes

Praise for Stand Up!:* "Vibrantly illustrated and featuring a variety of justice-seekers, this book belongs in every library and classroom." -- School Library Journal, starred review"The engaging text is enhanced by Johnson's bright, fluid illustrations... A work of advocacy and encouragement for the youngest readers." -- Kirkus ReviewsPraise for Brittney Cooper:"Brittney Cooper is a national treasure. Eloquent Rage is as exhilarating as it is vulnerable, a crucial book that tackles friendship and feminism, Hillary Clinton and Sandra Bland, violence and family, sex and faith, and race and gender, all with vibrant grace and honesty. Cooper is a generous writer, affording even those she rages against good humored compassion, but never letting any of us fully off the hook. This book is just so good." -- Rebecca Traister, New York Times bestselling author"[Eloquent Rage] is distinct both for its telling as the author's own journey and for its -- yes -- eloquent personal voice, which, between her erudition and her command of vernacular, is funny, wrenching, pithy, and pointed." -- Rebecca Solnit, The New Republic"A dissertation on black women's pain and possibility; an autobiography of a black woman's complicated dance with feminism, overcoming otherness as a big black girl in a skinny-white-girl world, her mother's triumph over violence, and her own journey from disappointment to black joy." -- Joy Reid, Cosmopolitan
