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。
