Kamala and Maya’s Big Idea by Meena Harris ill. Ana Ramirez Gonzalez

A beautiful, empowering picture book about two sisters who work with their community to effect change, inspired by a true story from the childhood of the author’s aunt, Kamala Harris, and mother, lawyer and policy expert Maya Harris.

One day, Kamala and Maya had an idea. A big idea: They would turn their empty apartment courtyard into a playground! This is the uplifting tale of how the author’s aunt and mother first learned to persevere in the face of disappointment and turned a dream into reality. A story of children’s ability to make a difference and of a community coming together to transform their neighborhood.

Meena Harris has a new book, Ambitious Girl, out in March (2021)
