My daughter, a library science grad student, and I discussed this book today. She learned about it during a black children’s imagination lecture. Little did she know that it’s one of the first books I checked out from the Chicago public library and read as a kindergartner in 1968. I moved to Wisconsin in 1970… This book is probably the last time I saw a black lead fictional-child character in a book (baring slaves & servants) until my teens!! What impact do you think that had on my own black imagination? It gives me new info to think about as I consider the gross racial disparities for Blacks in the state of Wisconsin. #BlackLiteratureMatters #LibrariansTakeNote #ParentsTakeNote

I’m reaching for greater vision, higher thoughts & deeper relationships in order to make more meaningful moves! You gotta expand your circles of influence every now and again to do so! #XAG2020 rocked me!
