The Nutcracker in Harlem
The Nutcracker in Harlem | T. E. McMorrow
5 posts | 4 read | 2 to read
This jazz-inspired reinvention of The Nutcracker is a worthy tribute to the dreamlike wonder and magic of the Christmas season. In this original retelling, set in New York City during the height of the Harlem Renaissance, one little girl finds her voice as a musician thanks to her enchanting adventures with a magical toy. This quintessential holiday tale is brought to vivid life by debut picture book author T. E. McMorrow and Coretta Scott King Award-winning illustrator James Ransome. An authors note at the end provides additional information about the history of the Harlem Renaissance, and about the authors inspiration for this musical retelling.

5⭐️! This rendition of the traditional ballet is set during the Harlem Renaissance is definitely one of my favorite versions that ever I‘ve seen/read. The illustrations are incredibly expressive, and it has the energy of the Nutcracker really coming to life. #WinterGames2021 #TeamGameSleighers @StayCurious

In this retelling of the Christmas classic Marie‘s family of musicians loves to sing, but Marie has trouble finding her voice. When she wakes in the night to armies of mice and toy soldiers, Marie bravely stands with her Nutcracker and finds her own voice.
