Remember Us | Jacqueline Woodson

What is it about Woodson that fully pulls you in, restarts your heart, makes you savor each phrase — whatever it is, it‘s magic. Story is based on Bushwick neighborhood in NYC, called “Matchbox” due to the constant house fires that happened there…

Vashti Harrison‘s self-illustrated picture book is a beautifully executed look at fat bias and its impact on young children. The text is sparse with the focus on the images of the nameless little girl as she endures the taunts and well-meaning but still hurtful comments from adults. It‘s wonderfully done and very moving such that I am still thinking about it. I‘d definitely read more of Harrison‘s work on the strength of this.

Ingrid Yung is determined to make partner at the Manhattan law firm she‘s been working at for the last 8 years. She‘s a whip-smart and meticulous Harvard grad - her parents and her culture have the highest expectations for her as an Asian woman. But things don‘t work out exactly as Ingrid had expected…
Great narrator. This might be a Netflix series…

I‘m so glad this picture book won some ALA Youth Media Awards today! It‘s a fantastic and beautifully illustrated story of how words can hurt, but how we can also work to control our self-image. Many of my students picked this as the Caldecott winner! *Graphic via Little, Brown Books for Young Readers‘ instagram

I‘m doing a “Mock Caldecott” unit with my students in the library, and these are the books we are reading. They are so beautiful! We‘ll find out the real winner next week! #schoollibrarian

Who is Huda (the author)? She is funny and wise and a great comic artist and a Muslim and an American. I adored her graphic novels! More Huda please, dear Huda. 😊
