BREANNA J. MCDANIEL Livres

A young girl undertakes an impossible trip to the moon and brings back something far more valuable than the stars themselves in this gentle, lyrically-told tale of love, family, history, and memory.

This triumphant picture book recasts a charged phrase as part of a black girl's everyday life - hands up for a hug, hands up in class, hands up for a high five - before culminating in a moment of resistance at a protest march.
