Beautiful Like ME!, the ONLY multicultural coloring/activity book that
focuses on fostering the healthy self esteem of young ladies!

Beautiful Like ME! is an interactive multicultural coloring activity book
that features ten female characters, each of a different ethnicity,
appearance and personality. With a foreword by award-winning author, Nikki
Giovanni, the coloring book encourages positive self-esteem among girls and
explores the unique cultural differences.

Self-esteem affects how children approach new tasks and challenges and how
they interact with others. Empowering girls to believe in themselves,
develop positive images about themselves and strengthen their self-esteem
are the goals behind Kimberly Cheri Brown’s Beautiful Like ME! product line.

According to the National Association of Self Esteem, low self esteem is
linked to criminal activity, poor performance in school, teenage pregnancy
and even suicide.

Utilizing initiatives like “Beautiful Like ME!” provides an alternative to
the negative media youth are exposed to on a daily basis.

Intended for ages 4 and up, “Beautiful Like ME” Coloring/ Activity Book is
the first of a series of books that Brown will publish. “This book makes
not only a great  gift, but is a great way to begin conversation about the
many stereotypes that pervade our communities.
