Title: Obvious Racial Overtones
Review: I was disappointed. The book begins not simply by stating that 'black is beautiful', which would have been fine, but instead it asserts that all the other birds of different colors are not beautiful. I am all for pride in one's appearance, family heritage, etc., but not at the expense of putting down the appearance of others. This book is a good reason why parents should read the books they intend to buy for their children BEFORE they purchase them. Racist and political overtones do not belong in children's literature.
Is the review positive or negative?
