The Walk (A Stroll to the Poll)
“Granny and her granddaughter are going on a walk. But this is not just any walk. It’s a walk that must not be missed; one that is more important than ever, but has been made increasingly difficult for many to participate in. It’s a walk that joins together a community, that lifts voices; that allows us to speak up, stand up, and say what’s on our minds. It’s a walk for hope. Where are all these treasured souls going? Just WALK ON and find out.” — publisher
Papa’s Mark
“Simms knows election day will be a big day for his papa, and for all of Lamar County. For the very first time, Papa will get to vote.

And Simms is determined to teach Papa, because, like his father, he knows that freedom doesn’t come easy.” — publisher
The Little Regent
“A little girl is tasked with ruling her West African village in this empowering story about breaking from tradition and leading with your heart.” — publisher
A Song So Black, So Proud!
“Written on a napkin and released just months after the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the song “Say It Loud (I’m Black and I’m Proud)” became an anthem and rallying cry for the civil rights movement, as well as a celebration of Black culture and community. The song was penned in 1968 by singer James Brown in response to the rising racial tensions throughout the United States. Now, in first-person lyrical text, the iconic song speaks for itself, narrating the elements and moments that inspired its creation. The song continues to inspire and resonate today. It’s been covered by artists like Usher and anchored Spotify’s Black Lives Matter playlist. Readers of all ages will be encouraged to lift their own voices in a celebration of Black pride and identity.” — publisher
