Oshún and Me: A Story of Love and Braids features sound design and special effects to enhance your listening enjoyment. Listen to the sounds of cowrie shells hitting against eachother and the fun on the playground!
Adiba Nelson's debut audiobook Oshún and Me is a heartwarming ode to family, identity, and the beauty of braided hair. Also available in Spanish!

It's Sunday, and that means it's Hair Day! As Mami weaves gold and cowrie shells into Yadira's hair, she tells her the story of the goddess Oshún, showing Yadi how her Afro Latin heritage is lovingly tucked into each braid and shell.
The next day, Yadi arrives for her first day at a new school. She's nervous about making friends, but with her beautiful braids, the click-clack of the cowrie shells, and a little guidance from Oshún, she finds she has everything she needs to be her best, most authentic self.
A Macmillan Audio production from Feiwel & Friends.
