CORETTA SCOTT KING AWARD WINNER โข CALDECOTT HONOR BOOK โข A NEW YORK TIMES BEST ILLUSTRATED BOOK
Acclaimed artist Faith Ringgold seamless weaves fiction, autobiography, and African American history into a magical story that resonates with the universal wish for freedom, and will be cherished for generations.
Cassie Louise Lightfoot has a dream: to be free to go wherever she wants for the rest of her life. One night, up on โtar beach,โ the rooftop of her familyโs Harlem apartment building, her dreams come true. The stars lift her up, and she flies over the city, claiming the buildings and the city as her own.
As Cassie learns, anyone can fly. โAll you need is somewhere to go you canโt get to any other way. The next thing you know, youโre flying among the stars.โ
Genre: Juvenile Fiction / People & Places / United States / African American & Black (fancy, right?)
