For all the littlest progressives, waking up to seize a new day of justice and activism.

Woke babies are up early. Woke babies raise their fists in the air. Woke babies cry out for justice. Woke babies grow up to change the world.

This lyrical and empowering book is both a celebration of what it means to be a baby and what it means to be woke. With bright playful art, Woke Baby is an anthem of hope in a world where the only limit to a skyscrapper is more blue.

We love this book and read it often. The illustrations are really cute, and the message is very sweet. There's nothing negative or disparaging about anyone in this book. It's all about uplifting and encouraging the woke baby. I highly recommend this to everyone!One thing I just noticed in my most recent read-through is the baby has 2 left feet in this picture. I just had to share it as a funny mistake that I've overlooked every other time we've read it.

5.0 out of 5 stars One year old loves it

It's amazing the majority of the low reviews are from people who did not purchase the book but are instead showing their insecurities with people of color having pride. Their descriptions prove this fact! This book is beautiful in itself with simple illustrations of a black child. Nothing mentions victimization, oppression nor discrimination as the reviews suggest. My one year old niece loved it the moment she pulled it from the packaging. Simply seeing a child who resembles her in a book brings a huge smile. The story is simple and not really much of a story but in a board book how deep does the literature truly need to be?

This is an AMAZING book that my family and I will being using a staple baby shower gift!!! My little one asks for it by name just about every night although he has over 100 books. To each their own but make sure you are being careful when reading some of these negative reviews; you can simply click on the user name and see what other items they have reviewed and many will prove that they have a very biased way of thinking and some have never given a positive review in their Amazon history.

Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2020

It’s cute, has a good message but kids won’t understand it. I was a little underwhelmed because the reviews were so great. I do like the book, I just wish I knew I could have heard the entire audio file first because I would have purchased one of the other recommendations that goes with it instead or in addition too.

Love this book... tho my little guy isn’t here yet, I’m enjoying reading this book to him. I think it’s fundamental to start early. And, I love that he’ll be able to see a kid like himself once he’s here. With words that’ll motivate him.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not as radical as I was hoping, people really hyped this up
Reviewed in Australia on November 14, 2023
Verified Purchase
I bought this based on all the negative reviews suggesting it was super radical but it's rather pedistrian. There's not enough messaging just a mention of reaching for justice and maybe activism but nothing else. A is for activist is a bit better but j would also consider things like pink is for boys etc.

Either way though this book is going into our time capsule, to discuss how people used the word "woke" and how much it upset people that we should encourage children to have empathy 😅 it'll be a great talking point about the time in which they were born that this book was SO UPSETTING given how tame it is.

3.0 out of 5 stars essential material for your revolutionary baby
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 14, 2023

Any of you familiar with 'anti racist baby' and similar such work will have an idea what to expect. We have here another invaluable piece of work on how to educate your baby in case you were worried your toddler might grow up uneducated about social justice.
Naysayers might well be asking if the target audience (babies) might be a little young to really grasp the concepts outlined in the book. This would be missing entirely missing the point. What you have to understand is that you might be thinking the real threat are those kooky guys in their white hoods and those white nationalists obsessing about their oh so fair complexion.
Well you'd be wrong. It's those bloody babies again. We have to get them when they are young. Otherwise before you know it if left to themselves they are going to be goose stepping around your front living room and doing Roman salutes and accessing the dark web to join your local far right chapter.
They are never too young to become anti racist.
They are never to young to become revolutionaries.
They are never too young to become woke.
So order your copy before it's too late.
And don't forget stay woke bro.
