You Matter to Me

Written by Doyin Richards and Robert Paul Jr

Narrated by Doyin Richards

In this audiobook by Doyin Richards, a dog describes what it’s like to go on walks with his Black owner and wishes that people would see his human as he does: with love.

Biscuit the dog is adopted from the shelter and loves his new home and his new human family. The dad, especially, takes good care of Biscuit and is the person who walks him the most.

But Biscuit soon realizes that not everyone shares his feelings about his human. His human is Black, and some people in the neighborhood are scared by that. Some people hold their purses closer, or tighten their grip on their children’s hands.

With honest, age-appropriate storytelling, Doyin Richards starts a conversation about racism that is more important than ever. Here is an audiobook that should be in every home, school, and library as a reminder that everyone matters.

A Macmillan Audio production from Feiwel & Friends.
