Review:
This lovely book is a celebration of African American spirituals. It takes readers on an emotional journey through twelve spirituals, exploring their historical, cultural, and personal significance.
The author shares her deep connection to these songs, expressing how they evoke a range of emotions from joy to sorrow. Powerful illustrations bring the spirituals to life, capturing the essence of each song and its impact on the narrator's heart and soul.
