My Cousins, My World
A lyrical, vibrant picture book celebrating the rich and unbreakable bonds we share with our cousins.
I have more cousins than I can count on my fingers and toes.
Quiet cousins and loud cousins.
Dark cousins and fair cousins.
Young cousins and old cousins.
I have cousins who are near.
And some who are far.
But even those who are far feel near. Because memories of them surround me, wrapping me up like a warm blanket.
From wild campouts to boisterous family gatherings, the adventures and experiences that bind cousins together are rich and lifelong. They are our first friends, and our forever friends.
A joyful celebration of family from debut author Sharara Attai, gloriously illustrated by CBCA award-winning illustrator Michelle Pereira.
