I would use this in my class to show how differences can make us unique and allow us to be ourselves, even though we might not be the same as everybody else it‘ll be a great learning lesson for everybody

Dark 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.

I got 2/3 through October #bookspin and stalled. Loooove this author but I am struggling with this one. This will push me to finish up.

#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.

Chelsea.Poole Great review! I still think about this book and his perspective. 3mo

I 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.

I just need to pick up this months Nancy Drew read from the library and my #MiddleGradeMarch stack is good to go. My current favorite mg author is Jason Reynolds and I‘ve read nearly all of his mg titles except the tagged title.

sblbooks As Brave as you is on my Goodreads TBR. I've heard his track series is excellent. Heidi was a five-star read from last year, for me. I hope you enjoy it! 10mo
mrp27 @sblbooks Thanks! I‘m really looking forward to Heidi, it will be a first time read. I read and loved Reynolds track series. 10mo
Caryl Great stack! I loved Land of the Cranes. 10mo
