The highly-anticipated sequel to The Proudest Blue; a New York Times bestseller which explores sisterhood and kindness, from trailblazer and Olympic medallist Ibtihaj Muhammad.

I want a kind world. A world where kindness passes from one to another.

When Faizah's teacher asks her class to imagine what kind of world they want to live in, Faizah imagines a world where everyone is kind to one another and tries to create that world in the school playground. But what Faizah wants most is to be like her big sister, Asiya. Will Faizah's classmates repay her kindness and find a way for her to match Asiya in time for school photo day?

An important and uplifting story about celebrating each other's differences and similarities.
