Mama Says I’m Fine

From New York Times bestselling author Brittney Cooper comes a heartwarming story of love and resilience that explores the powerful bond between a mother and daughter.

All my life, my mama has said two words to me: "You’re fine." It’s just two little words. But those two words can mean a lot.

When a young girl faces difficult obstacles or challenging days, her mama comforts her with two loving words: "you’re fine." Simple yet deeply affirming, she learns that being fine can mean many things—it can mean finding courage and speaking up, or embracing pride in who you are.

As she discovers that even strong mamas can have difficult days, she learns that "I’m fine" can simply mean that things are not okay right now, but they will be. Most importantly, those words remind her that she is always enough.

With Brittney Cooper’s beautiful and empowering text and Tamisha Anthony’s warm and dazzling illustrations, this book captures the unconditional love between mother and child. It is a heartfelt affirmation for all readers that they are enough and will always be perfectly fine.
