The illustrations by Kadir Nelson are breath taking and thought provoking in this very special book. Nelson also wrote the text which is told from the vantage point of a narrator telling the family history. Nelson says ”History was not at all my favorite subject…but it wasn’t until I became engrossed … (and) I learned that whether willingly or unwillingly, African Americans and Europeans forged a new country together.” This is a book which should be in very collection. It deserves to be read and discussed with students from 6<sup>th</sup> grade and up.
