Poetry for Young People: Maya Angelou, Writtenby Maya Angelou, Edwin Graves Wilson, Illustrated by Jerome Lagarrigue

Poetry for Young People: Maya Angelou

Written by Maya Angelou and Edwin Graves Wilson

Illustrated by Jerome Lagarrigue 

Grades: 3-8

These poems are written about many different things that were important to Maya Angelou. It is about her life, heritage, and the United States. The illustrations are beautiful and just as moving as some of the poems. The poems also honor people of her past and those she admires. From the people around her that have a lot of power to the mom who runs her household. It is a beautiful book.
