Great book for all children!
Being a mother of two bi-racial children, I love this book! "You be me and I'll be you" is a one of a kind children's book. Being that there are more bi-racial children in the world, this book is a blessing for awareness. It's about time someone recognized the beauty of being not white, not black, but human. I highly recommend it, not only for bi-racial...

Interesting story but a little weird
I'm not really excited about this book because the story gets a little weird and the illustrations aren't that appealing to me. A black child and her white step-father talk about swapping their ethnicities. It's was OK until dad starting rubbing coffee grounds on his face. Not something I'd probably read to my kids just because I can come up with a better way to teach...

Not impressed,
This review is from: You Be Me, I'll Be You (Paperback)
As a mom of to biracial kids, I was excited to see this book and share it with them. However after reading it for myself first, I regret purchasing it! I am not impressed with the dad in the story making himself dirty in order to look darker, and I dont think this puts race in a positive light. The illustrations are dark and not encouraging to a kid looking for acceptance. I will NOT be sharing this book with my children!
