The Adventures of Darrius: The Hall Monitor, is a book that shares how people can treat children unfairly because of the the color of their skin. In the story, the hall monitor yells at Darrius and is mean to him because Darrius is unlike him. Darrius learns that despite the color of his skin and how he is treated, his “melanin glow” is a super power and empowers him to stand up to individuals like the hall monitor.Children learn early, faster than adults seem to want to believe, how the things that make them unique - their skin, their hair, their eyes, their size, can cause others to treat them differently. Through Darrius and Princess, children of color learn regardless of how strong racism can be, they can combat it in their own way.Great book for all children!
