#RestInPower to Rev. Jesse Jackson. Today, we honor a giant whose voice, courage, and love for our people shaped generations. Reverend Jesse Jackson was not only a civil rights icon—he was family to the NAACP. His legacy sits at the heart of our work and at the center of this nation’s fight for justice. We carry his light forward. naacp.org/articles/naacp…

Michelle and I were deeply saddened to hear about the passing of a true giant, the Reverend Jesse Jackson. We will always be grateful for Jesse's lifetime of service, and the friendship our families share. We stood on his shoulders. We send our deepest condolences to the Jackson family and everyone in Chicago and beyond who knew and loved him.

MELODIES OF THE WEARY BLUES is a gorgeous picture book centennial of Langston Hughes’ first book of poetry, The Weary Blues, featuring stunning artwork by some of the industry’s most talented Black illustrators. 🎺 Go behind the book here: bit.ly/4t90R3k 🎵

Shaboozey dedicates his #GRAMMYs award to immigrants during his acceptance speech: “Immigrants built this country, literally. Actually. So this is for them. For all children of immigrants, and for those who came to this country in search of a better opportunity, to be part of a nation that promised freedom for all and equal opportunity for everyone.”

When little ones hear about violent events on the news or in their communities, it can be hard to help them understand and cope with what happened. Limiting media exposure and making space for them to express big feelings can help children feel safer and more secure.

@stefkidlit @GaryRGrayJr Thank you!!! 🙏🏾💖✨

For Day 17 of my PB reading challenge I was delighted to read I’M FROM by @GaryRGrayJr & one of my fav PB illustrators @ogemora! Poetic, inspiring, & fun, this book sings & soars off the page 💜 #StoryStudy #KidLit

@PatZMiller A lovely book that I'm certain made a kid very happy! 😊

If I made a list titled, “Kidlit folks I haven’t met but admire from afar,” @ogemora would be at the top. So, I was excited when she put ONE CAN BE in a @littlefreelibrary, making Rhode Island the 38th state in my quest for all 50. #onecanbe #50states #rhodeisland #kidlit

Joining @stefkidlit by reading a #PB a day during @taralazar January’s #StoryStorm. MORE OR LESS by #AlisonHughes and @ogemora is a feast for the eyes with spare text that is perfection. Lovely message full of the power of community. The art is gorgeous. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

🎶 Take a look, it’s in a book 🎶 After nearly 20 years… Reading Rainbow is returning to motivate, help, and encourage kids to become avid readers with new episodes, new friends, new projects, and of course… new books! Make sure to follow the rainbow 📚🌈✨ #FollowTheRainbow

@CulturedModesty @Harvard_Press @Harvard_Press will there be an audio version of this book close to publication? Added the physical to my reading list but it's easier if I am able to listen to books during studio

Out with @Harvard_Press in October: Brandon M. Terry, Shattered Dreams, Infinite Hope: A Tragic Vision of the Civil Rights Movement. Terry “argues, the civil rights movement is best understood in tragic terms.”

@LaurenBird42 @GPSDistrict I love it! :)

Saturday by @ogemora is a heartwarming picture book about a mom and daughter who cherish their special day together. Despite unexpected setbacks, they remind us that what truly matters isn’t the perfect plan—it’s the time spent with the ones we love. @BartonBuff @LivelyEagles

@donaldson_ju @Ahugheswrites @LittleBrownYR @lbschool Wow thank you Julia! That means a lot coming from you! 💖✨

I'm so excited to announce my next book MORE OR LESS written by @Ahugheswrites 6/1 @LittleBrownYR @lbschool ! For a story all about giving and reusing I enjoyed using bubble wrap, plastic bags, food wrappers, coupons and more to make this art. Hope everyone enjoys it too! 💖✨

@BrooklynDMonroe Oh I love this! Thank you <3

@ogemora what a beautiful book my daughter and I just read. It reminds me of our Saturdays and sometimes when things don’t go right she will tell me “it’s okay mommy”. Thanks for sharing this lovely story. 📚❤️🧑‍🧒 #welovebooks #saturday #blackauthor #reading #bedtimereading
