Another Book Rec
I think that everyone else has made all the points I would have, so I'll just agree with them. 
My one new comment is that there is another book that discusses teaching children about race, racism, and how to deal with them: I'm Chocolate, You're Vanilla. I just finished it, and I'm so glad that we bought it instead of checking it out from the library.
Good luck and God bless,
R

Child #2: Yes.
Child #1: Why is she white and you are black?
Child #2: Because I am adopted, and black people have more melanin than white people do.
Child #1: Oh, let's go on the high bars.
