The 1619 Project: Born on the Water by Nikole Hannah-Jones, Renée Watson

4.0

The heavier content of this picture book makes this a great read for older children to absorb and discuss with parents and caregivers. The illustrations are absolutely stunning and each poem carries a different aspect of our journey from the West Coast of Africa to the Americas. The verses are full of the joy, the pain, the struggle and the resilience that is the African American experience. I loved it!
