A beautiful journey into African American history: Discover the
true meaning of being brave in this tender and whimsical picture
book from Daniel Bernstrom (One Day in the Eucalyptus, Eucalyptus
Tree; Gator, Gator, Gator) and Shane Evans (Chocolate Me!) that
follows a grandfather and grandson traveling through time and
discovering their own African American history. When a little boy
is feeling afraid to go to school one day, his grandfather, Big
Papa, takes him away in his time machine--a 1952 Ford--back to all
of the times when he was scared of something life was handing him.
That's called being brave, Big Papa says over and over. Full of
heartfelt moments and thrilling magical realism, Big Papa and the
Time Machine speaks to the African American experience in a
touching dialogue between two family members from different
generations and emerges as a voice that shares history and asks
questions about one family's experience in 20th-century black
America. "Wasn't you scared?" "Oh, I was scared," Big Papa said.
"Sometimes you gotta walk with giants if you ever gonna know what
you made of. That's called being brave."
