A tender and healing tale that reminds every child: You belong. You are loved. You are just right.

Nia doesn’t feel like she belongs. Her family calls her too quiet, too different. In town, others laugh at her brown skin and whisper that she looks strange. Lonely and discouraged, she runs away—far away, into the tall grass. And when she settles there, the grass gathers her close and sings to her a song she has never before heard. A song of love, of hope, of the truths she has forgotten: She is not too quiet, not too different, not too brown. She is enough. She is just right.

With the accepting song of the grass in her heart, Nia finds the courage to return home to share its healing melody.

Lyrical and deeply moving, When the Grass Sang is a tender tale of belonging, courage, and love that reminds every child:
You belong.
You are loved.
You are just right.
