A lyrical tribute to the power of love - of self, of family, and of
community - and a reminder of the magic that lies within each of
us, from acclaimed spoken-word poet and award-winning author of
From Englewood, with Love, Black Roses: Odes Celebrating Powerful
Black Women, Black Oak: Odes Celebrating Powerful Black Men, and
the Sunday Adventures board book series. Love bubbles are meant to
protect us from the trouble that can find us in daily life. They
require faith, hope, and persistence to give them power.
Encouraging readers to dig deep and believe in themselves, Harold
Green III's Love Bubble reminds children of the power of love-for
ourselves and everyone around us.
The poet and founder of the music collective Flowers for the Living
pays tribute to all Black women by focusing on visionaries and
leaders who are making history right now, including Ava DuVernay,
Janelle Monae, Kamala Harris, Misty Copeland, Nikole Hannah-Jones,
Robin Roberts, Roxane Gay, and Simone Biles-with this compilation
of celebratory odes featuring full-color illustrations by Melissa
Koby. Black women are exceptional. To honor how Black women use
their minds, talent, passion, and power to transform society,
Harold Green began writing love letters in verse which he shared on
his Instagram account. Balm for our troubled times, his tributes to
visionaries and leaders quickly went viral and became a social
media sensation. Now, in this remarkable collection, Green brings
together many of these popular odes with never-before-seen works. A
timely celebration of contemporary Black figures who are making
history and shaping our culture today, Black Roses is divided into
five sections-advocates, curators, innovators, luminaries,
trailblazers-reflecting the diversity of Black women's achievements
and the depth of their reach. These inspiring changemakers are
leaving their mark on the world by creating new beauty in their
respective art forms, heading movements, fighting for equality and
to change the status quo, and championing new definitions of what's
possible in every meaningful way. Green lifts them up to create
meaningful connections between these figures and our own lives and
experiences. Black Roses spotlights and urges readers to learn more
about Allyson Felix, Angelica Ross, Ava DuVernay, Bisa Butler,
Bozoma Saint John, Charisma Sweat-Green, Dr. Eve Ewing, Dr. Janice
Jackson, Dr. Johnnetta Cole, Eunique Jones-Gibson, Issa Rae,

As he did for Black women in Black Roses, Harold Green III, poet
and founder of the music collective Flowers for the Living, now
honors the Black men he most admires-groundbreakers including Tyler
Perry, Barry Jenkins, Billy Porter, Chance the Rapper, LeBron
James, Colin Kaepernick, and John Legend-and celebrates their
achievements which are transforming lives and making history. Black
men are changing society and the world through mastery, innovation,
and inspiration at a pace never seen before. In awe of the myriad
ways in which Black men are using their vision and power to remake
culture and society, spoken word artist Harold Green began writing
odes recognizing the extraordinary accomplishments of a series of
Black men, which heshared on his Instagram account-tributes that
went viral and became a social media sensation. Black Oak brings
together many of these popular odes with original works written for
this collection. Divided into five sections-bravehearts, champions,
dreamers, guardians, and humanitarians-Black Oak features iconic
men who are spearheading movements, fighting for equality,
challenging the status quo, embracing fatherhood, providing a
transformative model of masculinity for our children, inspiring a
new generation of creators, and more. Through these beautifully
written verses, Harold does not simply place the Black men in this
book on a pedestal, he transcends even the most positive
stereotypes to view these men and their accomplishments in a new
light, and creates meaningful connections between these beloved
figures and the lives and experiences of readers of all
backgrounds. Featuring full-color illustrations by Melissa Koby,
Black Oak includes odes to Barry Jenkins, Big K.R.I.T, Billy
Porter, Black Thought, Chance the Rapper, Charles Booker, Colin
