When My Cousins Come to Town

by Angela Shanté

Description

Every summer, a young girl waits with excitement for her cousins to arrive and turn her birthday into a celebration full of laughter and lively family traditions. As each cousin shows up with their own personality—and their own cool nickname—she begins to feel left out, determined to find a way to be seen for who she truly is. With warm, city-summer energy and a focus on Black family life, this picture book explores belonging, individuality, and the joy of embracing differences within a close-knit community. Angela Shanté’s bright, relatable storytelling is complemented by bold, vivid artwork that captures the cousins’ antics and the heart behind the fun.
