My Cousins, My World

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.
