Reviews
"""I absolutely love this book! The author did a great job of sharing the information in a way her young audience could understand. I loved the engagement opportunities throughout that allowed for comprehension checks without being intimidating. I even learned a few things along the way. At 65 pages, this dynamic book packs a powerful punch. I highly recommend it to everyone--kids and adults alike."" --Rae Chesny, Zora Neale Hurston scholar ""I love how the book starts with a highlight in her life. Often books start with the beginning and lead up to an outcome, but not this time! Reading the first couple of pages allowed me to see that she was a preparer and able to conquer her fears, to achieve a desired goal. This book reminded me that age ain't nothing but a number and you don't have to finish how you start. Through all of her trials and tribulations, she came out stronger and wiser! The many thought-provoking questions scattered throughout the book were a bonus for me! I discovered some new things about her that I did not know and I'm sure you will too. I highly recommend it!"" --Tiffiney Rogers-McDaniel, author and owner of Teaching Parables Publishing ""If you are looking for a book that breaks down the story of Maya Angelou in a relatable way... this is IT! I always 'thought' I knew who she was but I discovered a lot more about her upbringing in this book. I appreciate this book for going deeper into her life and highlighting aspects about Maya that we don't often highlight. Most biographies just regurgitate the same old story but not this book. As a teacher, I love the quiz at the end of the book to test the comprehension of readers. This book would make a perfect companion to a classroom. Maya has a very inspirational story and I think everyone should know about it. Great Book! --Sheryl Smiley-Olpihant, author and educator"
