Preteens Natasha, Gillian, CC, and Tina eagerly anticipate the end of year school barbeque, but on the night of the event, bubbly "life of the party" Tina doesn't make an appearance. Worried by her absence, her three friends wonder if Tina is sick. Tina herself seems unwilling to provide any information, and acts nervous and upset over the phone. When the girls uncover the truth behind Tina's "illness," they find themselves on a journey of discovery. Guided by Natasha's patient older sister, the girls learn about themselves and the women they will soon become. Celebrating Me focuses on an important rite of passage for any young girl, sharing Tina's story with both humor and clear, informative language.

Book Description
This triumphant picture book recasts a charged phrase as part of a black girl's everyday life--hands up for a hug, hands up in class, hands up for a high five--before culminating in a moment of resistance at a protest march. A young black girl lifts her baby hands up to greet the sun, reaches her hands up for a book on a high shelf, and raises her hands up in praise at a church service. She stretches her hands up high like a plane's wings and whizzes down a hill so fast on her bike with her hands way up. As she grows, she lives through everyday moments of joy, love, and sadness. And when she gets a little older, she joins together with her family and her community in a protest march, where they lift their hands up together in resistance and strength.
