Self-love and self-esteem go hand in hand and should be taught early and often. The benefits of early cultivation of a healthy self-esteem will stay with a child through adolescence and into adulthood. Self-talk, using simple spoken affirmations, is one of many ways to teach self-love and I'm Awesome! I'm Cool! does just that.

When you look in the mirror, what do you see? Short coily hair. Deep, dark brown eyes. Golden brown skin. Or maybe you see long wavy hair. Green eyes. Skin with various shades of brown.

I'm Cool! is a book about teaching our children to love themselves unapologetically, and to be proud of who they are and what they can become.
