Ashley Bryan has beautifully illustrated three spirituals in Let It Shine. The colors are so vibrant. The jacket says it’s for ages 4-8, but my 2.5 girl loves it. I do too.

This lovely image is from a new-to-me favorite blog devoted to finding and recommending good books. Stop by before cashing in the bookstore gift cards for some thoughtful recommendations that might not otherwise be on your radar.
Pages For You
