Recensioner i media

"Mariame Kaba is always front and center in the fight for abolition. This beautiful story is a song of redemption and a study of the forever tremor that is mass incarceration. See You Soon is a shining example of how hope can tend to our deepest wounds."—Mahogany L. Browne, author of I Remember Death By Its Proximity to What I Love, TheKennedy Center Next 50 & Lincoln Center's inaugural Poet-in-Residence “Beautifully framed illustrations in bright colors illustrate six-year-old Queenie’s (Reyna) life with her mother and grandmother… This slight title is much needed for children who are separated from a parent who is in jail.” —Youth Services Book Review“This sensitive, affecting examination serves as a worthy conversation starter.” —Publishers Weekly
