One Million Men and MeCCBC Choices 2008, Cooperative Children's Book Center's best-of-the-year list 2009 Youth Top Ten pick, Detroit Public Library's African American Booklist 2008 Bronze Moonbeam Book Awards Medal, Multicultural Picture Book category Accelerated Reader and Scholastic Reading Counts! Title "The tone is strongly inspirational, and Ambush's realistic double-page spreads, which make particularly good use of close-ups, portray the child and her daddy against the big scenes of the crowds 'united and strong.'" "Kelly Starling Lyons has crafted an endearing tale that immediately brings to focus the significance of the Million Man March. The story is told from an unexpected perspective, yet fully captures the spirit of the day which was the empowerment of black men."
