Ndidi Amadi is the real-life Didi and has grown up to become a lawyer, educator, philanthropist and artist. Ndidi’s passion lies in supporting and creating equitable opportunities for underserved communities.
Hayley Blackwood is a children's book illustrator and character designer from rural North Carolina. Hayley has a degree in animation and is on a mission to bring more empathy, inclusion, and light to children through her artwork.
“I’m so excited for the first day of school today!”
Chichi says.
“Me too!” Didi replies.
“I heard Ms. Jackson brings her pet turtle to class,”
Chichi says. “I hope we get to feed it.”
“Oh cool!” Didi says. “I hope Mr. Lopez has a cheetah.”
“A cheetah?” The sisters burst into giggles.
Knock, knock.
“Hello, my queens,” Mama says. “Are you ready to go?”
