Creativity on the neighborhood walls

When a citywide mural project arrives, Kiki finds a can of spray paint and turns blank neighborhood walls into a canvas for self-expression. The story brings together art, cultural community, and the idea of heroism, with graffiti at the center of Kiki’s creative discovery. Its subject also reflects the authors’ shared childhood experiences, as John Leguizamo and graffiti artist John “Crash” Matos bring those memories to the page.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 interested in art and creative expression

  • Families seeking a picture-book story that celebrates cultural identity and creativity
