About this product
Product Information
This lyrical picture book biography tells the story of one of America's most celebrated children's book authors, Virginia Hamilton, the first African American to win the Newbery Medal, and is perfect for fans of Planting Stories: The Life of Librarian and Storyteller Pura Belpre . Virginia was free. To be a dreamer. To be a wanderer. To be her own unique self. Free to be. Virginia Hamilton was only nine years old when she decided she would become a writer. Growing up in the countryside of Ohio, she listened to her family's stories and knew that words held extraordinary magic. From her childhood years discovering her love for storytelling, to her early adult life honing her craft in the city, Virginia found her voice in her writing as she began a career defined by her roots. Through interconnected poems, this moving biography celebrates the remarkable life of the highly decorated and much beloved Virginia Hamilton. It's a stunning tribute to a girl who dared to dream-and inspired those after her to do the same.

Reviews
"Before she was an award-winning author of children's books, Virginia Hamilton (1934-2002) learned the art of storytelling from her close-knit family. Crews's free-verse poems recount Hamilton's Ohio upbringing learning from her father about Black luminaries, and wondering how she might shine like the starry individuals in her beloved family.... Digitally rendered, shape-based illustrations attend slice-of-life lines to emphasize Hamilton's experiences walking through the world as a storyteller whose 'most extravagant trips/ were in her mind.'"-- Publishers Weekly, Praise for Extraordinary Magic : "Poems and pictures trace Virginia Hamilton's family history, childhood, and growth into a writer.... In poem after poem--all in delicate, unrhymed verse--Crews carefully gives budding writers a role model.... Both a tribute to Hamilton's genius and an invitation to those yet to come."-- Kirkus

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
