The People Could Fly Picture Book and CD

About this book

LEO AND DIANE DILLONS award-winning picture book interpretation of Newbery Medalist Virginia Hamiltons beloved tale now includes an unforgettable word-for-word CD narration by James Earl Jones and Virginia Hamilton. This tale of slaves who could fly to freedom offered hope in the darkly brutal times of slavery. "That is what Virginia Hamilton set out to show what the Dillons have so astutely expounded on and what ultimately makes this version of People so powerful. Think of it as a triad of words pictures and storytelling." - New York Times Book Review An elegant gift for reading looking and listening.
