Black Girl You Are Atlas

An inspiration. Lovely and often searing poetry accompanied by gorgeous art.

Atlas (noun) 

capitalized : one who bears a heavy burden

Whenever I read a book by Renée Watson I'm always left just reflecting on my life as a black girl, and the little experiences that I've gone through turning out not to be a unique experience to just me, but just an experience unique to the black girl as a whole. 

This is an amazing collection of poems on the black girl experience. I highly recommend this to those who need that reassurance, that extra push in life, and need to feel seen in their experiences. 

Thank you Penguin Teen for the early copy!
