"We are brown. We are handsome. We are excellent." An inspiring anthem for boys bearing melanin of all kinds, Brown Boys Rule centers and celebrates boys of color. Ashok Banker and Brittney Bond bring this uplifting poem to life showcasing the empowering diversity of brown boys as engineers, artists, peaceful protesters, adventurers, kings, and leaders in their communities. One part love letter, two parts battle anthem, this picture book is a powerful reminder for boys of color that they may be kids, but they are strong and tough--as well as joyful and kind.

Ashok Banker is widely acknowledged for pioneering English-language genre fiction in India, having authored more than eighty books in various categories. As a neurodivergent (AuDHD) and nonbinary writer, they are passionate about inclusivity and representation. Their debut picture book, I Am Brown, won the Bank Street College Prize, made the Book Trust Great Books list, and was translated into several languages. They currently live with their family in southern California. Brittney Bond was born in sunny South Florida to a Jamaican family. She is currently based on the East Coast. A self-taught artist, she works primarily digitally with a passion for using appealing color palettes, intriguing lighting, and a magical and positive aura throughout her illustrations.
