"Reading this is a lot like thumbing through a scrapbook, inspiring conversations with young readers as they recognize their own families in the pages. . . Homegrown is a happy depiction of a quiet triumph: how African American families create that safe space called home." —Oprah Daily

"A sweet, meditative story of a young Black girl and her intergenerational household, and the love and care that goes into making a “home.” . . . Sparse text is on the smaller side and ranges one or two sentences per page, giving Wiley space to capture the kaleidoscope brightness of joyful Black girlhood. . . Vibrant and hopeful, ­Wiley’s author-illustrator debut about a young Black girl and her loving community belongs in every collection." —School Library Journal, starred review

"The warm, collagelike, digitally rendered illustrations spotlight the memories of a loving extended Black family . . . This one will make a wonderful intergenerational read-aloud. A joyous celebration of family." —Kirkus Reviews
