A girl discovers the beauty in herself by looking into her Nana's eyes. There are no mirrors in her Nana's house to reflect what others might see as negative. There is pure unconditional love. The beauty in this child's world is in her Nana's eyes. It's like the rising of the sun...

NO MIRRORS began as a song composed by Barnwell and recorded by Sweet Honey In The Rock. A CD of the song and the author reading the text is included in the book.
