For You, I Will

ESPN SportsCenter anchor Elle Duncan and Corretta Scott King Illustrator Honoree Laura Freeman team up in this moving ode to Duncan's daughter that will resonate with mothers and daughters everywhere.

I will wrap my arms around you, so you will know comfort.
And when you're ready to leave, I'll be brave enough to let you go.
I will stand steady while you find your footing.
I'll walk tall while you find your stride.
For you, I will.

Inspired by Elle Duncan's contribution to The Undefeated's "Love Letters to Black Women" segment, For You, I Will is an intimate yet universal celebration of growing up. The poetic text and heartwarming illustrations depict a mother teaching her daughter how to be confident, how to be a part of a community, and, ultimately, how to be unapologetically herself.

Perfect for Mother's Day, birthdays, and baby showers, For You, I Will's tender message expresses all the feelings that come with parenthood and watching your little one grow up.
