Opgroeien als een bruin meisje in het Westen brengt heel wat uitdagingen mee. Je ziet jezelf weinig weerspiegeld in de beelden die je te zien krijgt. Op televisie, in films en ook in boeken blijft het speuren naar iemand die eruitziet en die hetzelfde meemaakt als jij. Brown Girl Magic wil deze leegte mee opvullen. Het is een boek voor, door én over bruine meisjes. Over kroeshaar en gouden huid, over pesten en liefhebben, over alle maten, vormen en soorten bruine meisjes. Het is een boek dat die meisjes (nog) sterker hoopt te maken. Want geef nu toe: ze zijn gewoon magisch!
Noon gets home from school, sad and angry. Someone made fun of her dark skin and wild curls. He told her she should leave.
But Noon doesn't want to leave. And she shouldn't, because Noon is perfectly fine the way she is. In fact, she's MAGICAL.
Growing up as a brown girl in the West comes with its own set of challenges. You rarely get to see yourself reflected in the images presented to you. On television, in movies and even in books it is still a struggle to find characters that look like you, that deal with the same issues you do. Brown Girl Magic wants to help fill that void. It's a book for, by and about brown girls. About kinky hair and golden skin, about bullying and loving, about all different kinds, shapes and forms of brown girls. This book is an attempt to (further) empower those girls. Because let's admit it: they are quite magical!
