Reviews
The black hole and the shooting stars were my favourites.
I like this book because it teaches people how to say "even though I'm any colour I'm beautiful on the inside". I would recommend it to my friends who have brown skin like me.
A beautiful book with exquisite illustration exploring Sulwe's feelings about her skin. Loved how her mum explained the beauty she saw
I like this book because day and Night was tgeva.
I like that the author acturlly made feei about
the book.
I really enjoyed the book. It is a fictional story about a girl called ‘Sulwe’ , my favourite character, who doesn’t feel comfortable in her dark skin but then realises the beauty of it. It teaches your to love yourself because you are special.
It was really nice to read because I used to be bullied but when I read the book in realised I am beautiful
I like that Sulwe's mother told her that she can be beautiful anyhow.
I really like the sisters day and night and the drawings
An amazing story about self love
This book is completely true and you should never let anyone make fun of your skin.
It's all about kindness
A lovely story about a little girl who taught that it is not important how you look like because everyone is beautiful and amazing.
About a black girl Who thought she wasn’t beautiful. But he realised he just had to look it from the inside.
I thought it was brilliant because it shows how black people should be treated fairly and they are beauiful no matter what.
The book was super fun and lovely and beautiful.
We loved reading this book! The illustrations are beautiful and the story really makes you stop and think.
I loved the story of how the main character sulwe feels left out because she thinks her skin is dark and think this is why she can’t make friends but her sister can because she is lighter. Sulwe is then visited by a star and things change.
Very sad
It was a fantastic book all about diversity.it was fiction because it was not facts. My favourite person was sulwe. I would recommend it to my mum.
This is a story about a girl who didn’t like her skin. It made me sad and then happy because she learnt to love herself.
Absolutely stunningly illustrated picture book about a little girl who struggles to see beauty in her own dark skin. Such an important story for children of all races and backgrounds.
I think this book is very nice. The pictures are fabulous. Sulwe wanted to see the world but nobody wanted to play with her because she was dark but her sister was bright as the sun so everybody wanted to play with her. Sulwe wished she was as bright as the sun as well. This book is non-fiction and is an intersting read because once she stood up she had lots of friends. You should read it because it is very inspiring.
It is good. People gave her bad names and people gave her sister a bit better name. When she got home she was sad. And she went in her room and she cried. There was a shooting star that told her a story about two girls. She was happy after the story.
I felt like the book was so beautiful and I loved it so much
I really like this book, it taught me about acceptance and self esteem in a way i can understand
Such a wonderful book this is. Sad but nice
Beautiful pictures and a wonderful meaning within the story.
Sulwe is so pretty
I didn’t like her being sad
I would be sulwe’s friend
This is about a little girl who has very dark skin, but wants to have light skin like her sister and mum. One night, a shooting star takes her on an adventure and she learns about the sisters called NIght and Day. Everybody liked day more and said Night was scary, but after a while the people didn't want so much day and they wanted the Night back.
Sulwe realised that it doesn't matter what colour skin you have, you are still important and beautiful.
