Rating: 4.5/5

Pretty Melanin Me is a Children’s Book written by the author Markita Richards and illustrated by Blueberry Illustrations. The protagonist of the story is a little girl Jade. Once Jade asked her mom why her skin is darker as compared to some other people.

The way Jade’s mom told her the reason and the blessings that Jade has with her skin color made her happy and confident. This book gives a strong message that the color of our skin doesn’t define us. Our actions, inner beauty and our hard work is what defines us.

It was a short and quick read. Illustrations are beautiful and eye catchy and the story is written well. This book teaches little kids the importance of self love and self acceptance. It is a wonderful book that kids should have in their bookshelf.

The Farm From Anywhere by M.R. Alger

Book: The Farm From Anywhere

Author: M.R. Alger

Available On: Amazon

Language: English

Rating: 4.5/5

The Farm From Anywhere is a fantasy novel by the author M.R. Alger. The story is about a teenager Phillip Montgomery who was sent to his cousin’s house in King’s Hill to enjoy the summer vacations. Phillip found a messenger bag on the way with so many interesting things in it like The Pink Notebook, old and worn Children’s Book, crayons, markers, dolls, etc.

Phillip thought that this bag must be of some child. Weird things start to happen when Aunt Kath’s car crashed on the way. She checked so many times but it wasn’t getting started. When the mechanic checked, it started immediately. This means it was destined for Phillip to find this messenger bag. The story gets interesting from here and picks pace.

My favourite characters from the book are Phillip, his friend Dan and Fairchild’s daughter Maddie. Teenagers will enjoy this story to the most. I binge read it on the weekend as I couldn’t put it down. The ending of the book is what I loved. I am looking forward to read the sequel of this book.
