Free Within Ourselves
About this book
Rudine Sims Bishop traces the development of African American children’s literature through the books, writers, illustrators, and publishing conditions that shaped it. She considers how creators expanded the range of Black lives children could encounter on the page. The book is especially useful for readers building a collection or trying to understand how a classroom library acquired its shape.
