You Matter to Me by Doyin Richards

Biscuit the dog is adopted from the shelter and loves his new home and his new human family. The dad, especially, takes good care of Biscuit and is the person who walks him the most. But Biscuit soon realises that not everyone shares his feelings about his human. His human is Black, and some people in the neighbourhood are scared by that. Some people hold their purses closer, or tighten their grip on their children’s hands. With honest, age-appropriate storytelling, Doyin Richards starts a conversation about racism that is more important than ever. Here is a book that should be in every home, school, and library as a reminder that everyone matters.
Doyin Richards is the author of the picture books I Wonder: Celebrating Daddies Doin' Work, What's the Difference: Being Different is Amazing, and Watch Me: A Story of Immigration and Inspiration, which Publishers Weekly called "a story with universal impact" in a starred review. A charter member of the Today Show's Parenting Team, he lives in Los Angeles with his wife and their two daughters. @daddydoinwork.
