  • Hi. I'm Tia Mowry and I'm Tamera Mowry from "Sister, Sister." Welcome to the Screen Actors Guild Foundation BookPALS.

  • And today, we're going to be reading "No Mirrors in my Nana's House."

  • You know, Tamera, when I was first introduced to this book, I was very intrigued by the title, "No Mirrors in My Nana's House" and I actually, you know,

  • had to ask myself how would this world, or how would our society actually be without any mirrors. I mean, would there be any stereotypes?

  • I liked the book because I thought it sounded like a song and it kind of had a wonderful rhythm to it. So I'm very excited.

  • I think it's very colorful and fun and the author of the book is Ysaye Barnwell and the illustrations and paintings are by Synthia Saint James.

  • There were no mirrors in my Nana's house

  • no mirrors in my Nana's house

  • So the beauty that I saw in everything

  • the beauty in everything

  • was in her eyes like the rising of the sun

  • There were no mirrors in my Nana's house

  • no mirrors in my Nana's house

  • so I never knew that my skin was too black

  • I never knew that my nose was too flat

  • I never knew that my clothes didn't fit

  • I never knew there were things that I missed

  • 'Cause the beauty in everything was in her eyes

  • like the rising of the sun

  • There were no mirrors in my Nana's house

  • no mirrors in my Nana's house

  • I was intrigued by the cracks in the wall

  • I tasted with joy the dust that would fall

  • The noise in the hallway was music to me

  • The trash and the rubbish just cushioned my feet

  • And the beauty in everything was in her eyes

  • like the rising of the sun was in her eyes

  • There were no mirrors in my Nana's house

  • The world outside was a magical place

  • I only knew love and I never knew hate

  • And the beauty in everything was in her eye

  • like the rising of the sun

  • Chil' look deep into my eyes

  • Chil' look deep into my eyes

  • Chil' look deep into my eyes

  • Remember in the beginning when I told you this book reminded me of a song? Actually, it was inspired by a song.

  • And you know the author, Ysaye Barnwell, she's in a group called "Sweet Honey and Rock."

  • And now, we get to listen to them sing: "No Mirrors in My Nana's House."

  • singing. . .

  • Wow, that was incredible. I loved it. That was beautiful. You know what, in a way, it made the book come alive to me.

  • Yeah. It really did. If you're reading it. It touches you. Mm-hmm, right here, in the heart, in the soul, it was very beautiful.

  • Well, I enjoyed it. I hope you guys did, too and thanks for watching. Bye.
