Wade Hudson Pens New Picture Book Black Boys, I See You
as a Tribute to Black Boys

(September 28, 2026) Award-winning author Wade Hudson has collaborated with artist Keith Mallett on a picture book called Black Boys, I See You. Targeted to readers ages 3-7 and scheduled for release September 8, 2026, it’s a powerful tribute to Black boys everywhere.

“Black Boys, I See You is an affirmation,” explains Hudson. “I wrote the book to inspire Black boys to recognize their own greatness and to ensure they and all readers understand that Black boys deserve to be seen, heard, respected, valued and celebrated.”

Through lyrical prose, Black Boys, I See You explores several interconnected themes including strength, identity, and belonging, while Mallett’s illustrations depict rich and affirming portraits of childhood.

The book includes fifteen vignettes featuring boys making their way through the world ─ discovering their talents, navigating challenges, learning, loving, and growing.

The book has received advance praise, including a starred review from Kirkus Reviews, which said it’s “written from a place of love and deeply attuned to the emotional needs of Black boys” and from New York Times bestselling author Jacqueline Woodson, who called it “a fabulous celebration of the brilliance of Black boys.”
