AlbakiReads Editorial

Curiosity, identity, and belonging

Tolu introduces herself through the things she enjoys—steelpan, saxophone, and art—as she gets ready to start at a new school. Her questions about meeting children who look different from her open into a child-centered exploration of identity and diversity in Canada. The book presents diversity as a strength and invites young readers to consider how curiosity can help them learn about one another.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Young children beginning conversations about identity and difference
  • Families and educators introducing diversity through a picture-book-style exploration

Book overview

Have you ever met someone and wondered where they might be from?

 

Hi, I'm Tolu! I play steelpan, I love the saxophone, and I like art.

Dad always says I am his curious Caribbean Canadian girl and I'm super excited to go to my new school tomorrow!

Mom said there are many kids that don't look like me. Do you think that's cool?!! I do, but I'm a little nervous too.

 

What makes Canada strong is its diversity, but we often don't take the time to truly explore it.

'Where are you from?', is a book where you can follow Tolu as she explores and teaches us about diversity for what it is, a strength.
