Our Skin: A First Conversation About Race Review: Perfect Book! - Perfect read for education and toddler book time. The topic is just perfect, and this holds their attention while educating them. Great for at home, preschool, school, etc. Super affordable, delivery was right on time and intact. Definitely purchasing more in the future absolutely love this book. Review: Diversity, Equality, Empathy, & Compassion - There is more than on way to learn. Critical thinking is SO important. Books OPEN minds. Seeking diversity increases the quality of decision making. If children of color are old enough to EXPERIENCE racism, white children are old enough to LEARN about racism. It's not meant to make people feel bad about themselves, it's meant to make people AWARE and critically think for themselves. The less you learn, the easier you are to be controlled. Reading books opens your mind to many new, exciting and challenging ways of thinking. To have empathy and compassion for others. To those who have a problem with this book, please take a step back and look at this book from a new and different perspective. This isn't teaching white children to feel guilty, it's teaching ALL children to ACKNOWLEDGE skin color but DON'T treat people differently because of stereotypes based on skin color. Don't let your fear stop an opportunity for growth and the betterment of the future. Education is elevation. The highest form of knowledge is empathy. Nelson Mandela said, "Education of the most powerful weapon which can be used to change the world." Let's bravely change the world for the better together. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #24,702 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #12 in Children's Books on Prejudice & Racism #47 in Children's Multicultural Story Books #1,206 in Children's Friendship & Social Skills Books (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (2,097) | | Dimensions | 6.73 x 0.83 x 7.52 inches | | ISBN-10 | 0593382633 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0593382639 | | Item Weight | 1.11 pounds | | Language | English | | Part of series | First Conversations | | Print length | 38 pages | | Publication date | March 16, 2021 | | Publisher | Rise x Penguin Workshop | | Reading age | 2+ years, from customers | ## Images ![Our Skin: A First Conversation About Race - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91nMoeST8lL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect Book! *by C***E on January 10, 2026* Perfect read for education and toddler book time.

Written with great care, it’s a fun read for a kid but gets you using language about skin color and even touching in big concepts of what-is-race and racism. Fun illustrations, great art. Simple enough that my toddler follows it overall; and then the harder concepts he can skim over but they allow me to start formulating how to talk to him about them, made me realize things that are hard for me to verbalize to him, etc. Also love this for grandmas/etc to read. It shows them how we want to talk to our children about race, models some language for them and pushes their thoughts from the “colorblind” concepts & language they taught us. They feel scared to even talk to me about talking about race with kids... and this book is a good segue, they can look and think it over and gives us a practical avenue to discuss. Note: this review is written by a white mom in an all-while family. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.de/products/246243228-our-skin-a-first-conversation-about-race](https://www.desertcart.de/products/246243228-our-skin-a-first-conversation-about-race) --- *Product available on Desertcart Germany* *Store origin: DE* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
