This book is very empowering. It shows different kiddos and talks about what they want to do and who they want to be. I would think about using this in my classroom for third through fifth grade. I think it doesn't amazing job of inspiring kids to do and be whoever they want to be and whatever they want to chase. Envision a world where children are dreamers and explorers of themselves, and you have this book. Tarpley’s latest picture book is a thoughtfully written poem penned to affirm Black children. She gives Black children permission to investigate their inner and outer landscapes and supports their choices in determining how they show up in the world. Tarpley’s text declares: “I am hope”; “I am a tiny bird”; “I am light.” These words and phrases are powerful analogies and metaphors for strength, resiliency, and freedom. Other metaphors invite children to see themselves as a “free spirit” who moves “to the rhythm of my own heartbeat” and a “gardener” who plants “dreams the world will know.” The photo-collage illustrations are full of color and movement, each one with a beautiful Black child front and center. Many of the images are out of this world—sometimes literally—and styled to represent the ideas from the stanzas they accompany. One child is a “yet unnamed” superhero surrounded by flames; another is a star dancing across the night sky; and two children who represent sadness wear golden tears frozen on their small brown cheeks. The images are a blend of the realistic and the fantastic, with hints of Afro-futurism. Moreover, the ideas are not presented as static states of being: The children are free to move fluidly from one idea to the next, as evidenced in the refrain: “My creativity and curiosity / flow without end, / and if I meet an obstacle, / I just begin again.” (This book was reviewed digitally.) An affirming celebration of individuality and cultural appreciation. (Picture book. 4-7) This book shares with the reader how people are able to choose who they are and how they act. It shares a theme that kids can be defined by their own feelings and they have a choice to be joyful even when they face obstacles. The book's illustrations are of all children of color which allows students in the black community to connect with the book itself. The book also encourages readers to use their creativity, and I would use this book to share with students how their creativity and mindset toward mathematics can change their success. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
