A Black girl finds connection through a day out in nature. Tasha is
a girl who has trouble finding her voice to speak in school or to
even make a friend. But all that changes when she visits the best
park ever. Tasha’s story takes place on the same class trip
featured in the ground-breaking book, Where’s Rodney?, and shows
the power of nature to transform a child.

A Black boy's transformative day out in nature, recommended by
Social Justice Books and We Are Kid Lit Collective Rodney is that
kid who just can't sit still. He's inside, but he wants to be
outside. Outside is where Rodney always wants to be. Between school
and home, there is a park. He knows all about that park. It's that
triangle-shaped place with the yellow grass and two benches where
grown-ups sit around all day. Besides, his momma said to stay away
from that park. When Rodney finally gets a chance to go to a real
park, with plenty of room to run and climb and shout, and to just
be himself, he will never be the same.
This spirited collection of poems introduces young readers to
Danitra Brown, the most splendiferous girl in town, and her best
friend, Zuri Jackson. "The poignant text and lovely pictures are an
excellent collaboration, resulting in a look at touching moments of
universal appeal."--School Library Journal.
Black is dazzling and distinctive, like toasted wheat berry bread;
snowberries in the fall; rich, red cranberries; and the bronzed
last leaves of summer. In this lyrical and luminous poetry
collection, Coretta Scott King honorees Joyce Carol Thomas and
Floyd Cooper celebrate these many shades of Black beautifully.
Included in Brightly's list of recommended diverse poetry picture
books for kids. "Highly recommended for home and school libraries,"
commented Brightly's Charnaie Gordon. "Each melodic poem eloquently
conveys the beauty of different skin tones and complexions. There
are also themes of family, traditions, feelings, self-love, and
acceptance echoed throughout this book." "Evocative, colorful
poetry. An essential picture book."-Kirkus (starred review) We are
color struck The way an artist strikes His canvas with his brush of
many hues Look closely at these mirrors these palettes of skin Each
color is rich in its own right
A collection of poems, including "Golden Goodness," "Cranberry Red," and "Biscuit Brown," celebrating individuality and Afro-American identity.

Max loves his grandpa. When they must say good-bye after a visit,
Grandpa promises Max that the moon at Grandpa's house is the same
moon that will follow him all the way home. On that swervy-curvy
car ride back to his house, Max watches as the moon tags along. But
when the sky darkens and the moon disappears behind clouds, he
worries that it didn't follow him home after all. Where did the
moon go - and what about Grandpa's promise?
