“Born to parents who fled slavery and the Trail of Tears, Magnolia Flower is a girl with a vibrant spirit. Not to be deterred by rigid ways of the world, she longs to connect with others, who too long for freedom. She finds this in a young man of letters who her father disapproves of. In her quest to be free, Magnolia must make a choice and set off on a journey that will prove just how brave one can be when leading with one’s heart.” Dr. Ibram X. Kendi & Loveis Wise came together to brilliantly tell & illustrate Zora Neale Hurston’s powerful story with new generations. Proud to have read this! Excited for EVERYONE to celebrate the beautiful story of Magnolia Flower 💜 #librariansofinstagram #bookworm #bookstagram #weneeddiversebooks #representationmatters #readinfullcolor #magnoliaflower
