Product Details

Praise

★ “Lyrical text pairs expertly with chosen images, emphasizing historical Black joy and accomplishments, while simultaneously connecting to the present. This book will irrefutably provide invaluable opportunities for readers to delve into their own family or cultural histories . . . Moving and profound, this inspiring glimpse of photographs and text will remind all readers of the value of family connections, of time’s passing, and the need for remembrance.” —School Library Journal, starred review

★ “The interplay between the text and photos is ingenious, as questions range from the general to the specific, inviting young readers to imagine the lives of the people in the photos and how similar or different those experiences might be from their own.” —BCCB, starred review

“Henderson’s exploratory narration breathes new life into pictures from long ago that may inspire readers to delve into their own histories and discover more about who paved the way for them. The images take center stage, set against a dark background and often accented with frames, resulting in a book reminiscent of a photo album . . . A heartfelt narrative that pays homage to the past.” —Kirkus

“It’s an expansive photographic album that acknowledges the impact of ancestors and histories on the present.” —Publishers Weekly
