      2021., Juvenile, Bloomsbury Call No: 811 GRI    Availability:1 of 1     At Location(s) Summary Note: "For centuries, accomplished women, of all races, have fallen out of the historical records. The same is true for gifted, prolific, women poets of the Harlem Renaissance who are little known, especially as compared to their male counterparts. In this poetry collection, bestselling author Nikki Grimes uses "The Golden Shovel" poetic method to create wholly original poems based on the works of these groundbreaking women--and to introduce readers to their work. Each poem is paired with one-of-a-kind art from today's most exciting female African-American illustrators to create an emotional and thought-provoking book with timely themes for today's readers. A foreword, an introduction to the history of the Harlem Renaissance, author's note, poet biographies, and index makes this not only a book to cherish, but a wonderful resource and reference as well. The artists we'll be approaching include: Cozbi Cabrera, Nina Crews, Pat Cummings, Jan Spivey Gilchrist, Laura Freeman, Vashti Harrison, Ebony Glenn, Ekua Holmes, Brenda Joysmith, Oge Mora, Vanessa Brantley Newton, Daria Peoples-Riley, Anna Rich, Faith Ringgold, Shadra Strickland, Loveis Wise, Elizabeth Zunon"--

At the age of six, she poured her pain onto a piece of paper late one night - and discovered the magic and impact of writing. For many years, Nikki's notebooks were her most enduing companions. In this accessible and inspiring memoir that will resonate with young readers and adults alike, Nikki shows how the power of those words helped her conquer the hazards - ordinary and extraordinary - of her life"--Amazon.
