Excellent book!! Anyone w/ kids or deals w/kids should read. August 15, 1999
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
This book was very informative. I do a lot of reading on thissubject, as I am a black mother of two bi-racial children, and consider myself very informed and open-minded. But this book gave me an opportunity to view race, and color perspectives from a child's view and not any adult. Which I must say was very amazing how childrens' thought process are. Anyone that has children no matter what your race, ethnic background etc. should read this book. Even an open-minded person, such as myself that makes a continuous effort to become as knowledgable as possible about this subject learned from this book. A must read book!!!

I'm Chocolate, You're Vanilla is a candid look at the modern race 'situation'. I saw myself in so many of the pages and realized I'm NOT the only one who sees it, thinks about it and lives it. Intellegently written, this book is the cherry pie in it's field and promises a smooth swirl into the meltingpot that is America. EVERYONE should read it.
Great book for raising any child! April 6, 1999

I'm a biological mom of a caucasian son, and an adoptive mom of one bi-racial and one african american child. I thought this book spoke in clear, non-clinical terms about how to raise a healthy child with a positive self-image, no matter what the race! In a household like mine, where everyone has a different race but the same name, it is a great resource to see that they all grow up to know they are important, lovable, and vital to our family and our world.
This is book for anyone who deals with children of any race. March 29, 1999

This book is by no means useful only to parents of black and bi-racial children. As a white parent I found it very informative and uplifting. Its basic premise, that there is a developmental awareness of race, so different from adults, is often overlooked even by professionals. Dr. Wright points out how much we can learn from this child's perspective and what a fresh start we can have to correct misconceptions. I recommend it to parents, teachers, childcare providers, anyone who deals with children of any ethnicity. After all, kids are kids.
