I‘d never heard of renowned singer/dancer/performer Florence Mills. This is a great picture book introduction to her amazing life.

“She went to hospitals to deliver flowers to patients. And she walked along the Thames river giving money and food to beggars.“

Florence knew that she could take her talents to a crowd that would appreciate her for who she was. Very moving for someone so young.

Published in 2012, this children's biography is based around the life of Florence Mills. Mills always knew her passion was singing, and the cruel world of inequality and racism made it hard for her to pursue her dreams. This shows how she was able to overcome it and support only what she believed in. A great way to incorporate diversity in the classroom.
