NYPL'S TOP 10 BOOKS FOR KIDS Exploring American history and finding
diversity at its roots! This graphic novel by JAMES OTIS SMITH
celebrates the extraordinary true tales of three black heroes who
took control of their destinies and stood up for their communities
in the Old West. Born into slavery in Tennessee, Mary Fields became
famous as "Stagecoach Mary," a cigar-chomping, card playing coach
driver who never missed a delivery. Bass Reeves, the first black
Deputy US Marshal west of the Mississippi, was one of the wiliest
lawmen in the territories, bringing thousands of outlaws to justice
with his smarts. Bob Lemmons lived to be 99 years old and was so
good with horses that the wild mustangs on the plains of Texas took
him for one of their own. A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard
Selection From the introduction by KADIR NELSON, winner of the 2020
Caldecott Award: "Black Heroes of the Wild West is a brilliant and
entertaining offering. Through sharp and evocative storytelling in
the exciting medium of comics, lesser-known African American
historical figures will be introduced to new generations of
readers."
Writer Ted Fox and artist James Otis Smith bring to life Harlem's
legendary theater in this graphic novel adaptation of Fox's
definitive, critically acclaimed history of the Apollo. Since its
inception as an African-American theater in 1934, the Apollo, and
the thousands of entertainers who performed there, have led the way
in the presentation of swing, bebop, rhythm and blues, jazz,
gospel, soul, funk and hip-hop-along with the latest in dance and
comedy. The Apollo has nurtured and featured thousands of artists,
many of whom have become legends. The beauty they have given the
world-their art-transcends the hatred, ignorance, and intolerance
that often made their lives difficult. Today, the Apollo enjoys an
almost mythical status. With its breathtaking art, this graphic
novel adaptation of Showtime at the Apollo brings to life the
theater's legendary significance in music history, African American
history, and to the culture of New York City.
