Important

Miyares turns the poem “Dream Variation” by Langston Hughes into a picture book that shows a segregated town in the 1950s. There are separate drinking fountains for white and black people and the races are separate when they relax as well. Then the book changes with a feeling of whirling and release into a book that shows equality, shared time together and the hope of a day spent in harmony. The book is infused with hope, showing how possibilities of freedom and equality can be realized eventually. The book doesn’t move to the present, instead staying in the 1950s and showing what no segregation would have looked like back then. The illustrations by Miyares are beautiful, filled with deep colors and diversity. A very special book that pairs important poetry with a renewed vision. Appropriate for ages 4-7.

Black History Made Available to a Young Child

That Is My Dream! by Langston Hughes (1902-1967). Illustrated by Daniel Miyares. A picture book of Langston Hughes's "Dream Variation”. Print copy, 32 pages. Published 03 October 2017 by Random House/Schwartz & Wade. Kindle edition.Illustrations are beautiful and vividly animate racial inequality in the sweet aspirations of an African American boy. It subtly shows how segregation was then viewed as normal—an important history in a book that can be enjoyed both for its poetry and its excellent illustrations. Highly recommend. Awesome!
