Praise forĀ Happy to Be Nappy:

Image Award nomination, 2001

-National Association for the Advancement of Colored People

*"A powerful, uplifting and, above all, buoyantly fun read-aloud."

-Publishers Weekly, starred review


"[Happy to Be Nappy] has a free-wheeling joy that is admirably captured by illustrator Raschka."

-Bulletin for the Center of Children's Books


"The big daubs of background color seem to dance and spin with the figures, visual music to match the verbal."

-Kirkus Reviews


"[Chris Raschka's] illustrations bring out the spirit behind hooks's writing and have great child appeal."

-School Library Journal


"[S]tellar illustrations."

-The Horn Book


"[A]dults and small children will enjoy sharing the joyful words and the playful color wash pictures with thick black lines."

-Booklist
