Review Quotes:
"Essence tackles a problem difficult for young children to process when they find out their parent has a chronic illness. She respects the child's viewpoint and is able to explain chronic illness in a way that any child can comprehend. This book not only speaks to parents with chronic illnesses, but to communities of color as well. Essence Unique defies the stereotype of Black and Brown communities lacking knowledge in medical care by depicting the characters as brown in her children's book. On a personal note being a child of a parent who had a chronic illness, this book nurtured my inner child as I read it. There is no doubt that Essence Unique has provided a literary piece in children's literature that will bring not only families but communities together in unity. Your Brain Has Too Much What Mommy? Is a must read!"
