I identify with both my Afghan and European ethnicity. As I age, I find myself researching more about my identity.

My mother is white, my father is South Indian. I am proud of both races, even though sometimes I feel it would be easier to just be one or the other.

What renders this book particularly relevant is its exploration of the complex emotions experienced by multicultural children. It provides them with a valuable platform for expression, which is truly beautiful to witness. The author, along with his visionary mother, has executed an exceptional job in crafting this book, which not only serves a much-needed purpose but also offers insightful statistics on the American demographic for this category.
