Gravey's Choice is a beautiful book. And as my post title says, any book from
Nikki Grimes. This brilliant work, written in
tanka addresses young Garey (named for
Marcus Garvey and I think it is cool that it is brought up in the book because I don't know if kids learn about Garvey in school) is coming of age, deciding who he is and how to be who he is in light of who is dad is, who is mom is, who his friends are. Fantastic book.
