"This book feels like going home-a loving family of writers who came before me saying, 'You got this and we got you.' It is truly the Bible every reader and every writer needs." -Jacqueline Woodson, author of Red at the Bone "Beautifully written, unforgettable, and resonant coming-of-age stories that explore our vulnerabilities and complexities as Black girls navigating a world that has already made up its mind about us. This anthology presents an opportunity to commune with each other as Black women, to step inside the interior worlds of Black girls, to hear our own voices echoed back to us. ...

What a roar!" -Nicole Dennis-Benn, author of best-selling novels Patsy and Here Comes the Sun "On Girlhood is a beautiful and comforting patchwork quilt of stories from our literary contemporaries and foremothers. With this collection, Glory Edim is the master seamstress who is helping us stitch together the tattered pieces of us." -Ibi Zoboi, New York Times best-selling coauthor of Punching the Air "The stories collected here are the design to growing up, growing knowledgeable, and growing good. Pieces and reflections, poems, and praise all live here: as Black and shining as a free being should be. We should be thankful for Glory Edim, who gathered the recipes for our thriving. What an act of grace, what a glorious tribute to our joyful permanence indeed." -Mahogany L. Browne, author of Chlorine Sky
