African American Children Literature
Thought my search for culturally authentic African American Children Literature I have found that realistic African American literature is available but must be actively sought out!
What A Wonderful World
(Weiss, Weiss, Thiele, & Bryan, 1996)
Note: What simpler way could there be to express to children the beauty and the harmony in the world around them than through the lyrics of this song by George David Weiss and Bob Thiele, made famous by the great Louis Armstrong? And what better visual accompaniment than the bright colorful artwork by award-winning Ashley Bryan depicting children of many backgrounds (and Louis Armstrong himself) performing a puppet show that brings the lyrics to life.
