In Your Hands is a 2017 children's picture book written by Carole Boston Weatherford and illustrated by Brian Pinkney.
Written from the perspective of a Black mother as she holds her newborn son, Omari. She imagines their life together, including rocking him and holding his hand on the way to kindergarten. However, she knows she will not always be able to protect her son, especially as he encounters racism, so she prays God will also be there for him.
