Ann Rinaldi books are among my favorites from childhood. Hope you enjoy that one! (it's based on Phyllis Wheatley's life, am I right?)

ReplyDeleteAs you know, I'm in Detroit. There is a huge, iconic mural done by Diego at the Detroit Institute of Arts. Would love to have this.
ReplyDeleteHang a Thousand Trees with Ribbons was really good! This book made Phyllis Wheatley seem more real to me, like a regular teenager. I really, really enjoyed it!
