Rainbow in the Cloud: The Wit and Wisdom of Maya Angelou | Maya Angelou
7 posts | 3 read | 2 to read
Since the publication of her first autobiography, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, Maya Angelou has been celebrated as one of America's most important writers and her words are indelibly imprinted on the hearts of millions. Inspired by the woman who has inspired us all, Rainbow in the Cloud offers nearly 300 of Dr Angelou's wonderful quotes, organised in themed sections (including art, love, spirituality, womanhood, and life in the American South) - from sage advice and beautiful stanzas to humorous quips and pointed observations - drawn from each of her published works and from her celebrated (and much shared) social media posts. This collection also features special words of wisdom she shared often with her family, chosen by her son, Guy Johnson.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A quick read. I read it in less than a hour. This is a compilation of Maya Angelou‘s most impactful words of wisdom. Some of the chapters include Love & Relationships, Literature, Spirituality, Grace, Courage, Emotions and Self-Esteem plus many others. This is the perfect book to lift your spirits when you‘re not feeling your best. Dr. Angelou gives the reader that old school wisdom that quite frankly, is simply hard to come by today.

This is a lovely little book of some of Maya Angelou's words of wisdom. There are so many good points in this book I had trouble deciding what quote I wanted to post. An uplifting read that leaves you in a great mood and wanting to put her teachings to good use.
