pickDark Was the Night: Blind Willie Johnson‘s Journey to the Stars by Gary Golio tells the story of blues musician Blind Willie Johnson, whose haunting song, “Dark Was the Night,” was sent into space on NASA‘s Voyager. Despite adversity, his powerful music resonated deeply, transcending earthly struggles. Through evocative illustrations, the book shows how his legacy lives on as his music journeys among the stars.
pick#blameitonlitsy I listened to this based on @Chelsea.Poole review a while back. It was a really interesting look at the experiences and politics of the blind community from someone who has a degenerative condition. I appreciated learning from the perspective of someone who will soon no longer be an outsider and who is trying to figure out his place in a complicated social structure, while presenting the information in an unbiased way.
pickI really enjoyed this book. It‘s about the author navigating his own soon-to-be blindness as well as an examination of the language, politics, and attitudes about the community of blind individuals. It‘s told from the heart and with a quirky sense of humor about it.

Cheyenne took a deep breath and thought about her answer.

pickThe art is beautiful, the story is touching, and yes, I cried a little at the end. A story of a guide dog who loses his eyesight, ends up tricked by some pesky raccoons, and learns how to use his other senses to see the world around him #friendship #dogs #blindness #netgalleybacklog #joyousjanuary
