Love Poems

BY NIKKI GIOVANNI
This is a companion volume to Giovanni's love poems of 1997. Since then Giovanni has experienced losses both public and private. The death of her mother and sister, the massacre at Virginia Tech where she teaches. And just when it seemed life was spinning out of control, Giovanni rediscovered love-what she calls the antidote. Here romantic love-and all its manifestations, the physical touch, the emotional pull, the hungry heart-is distilled as never before by one of our most talented poets.

Rosa

BY NIKKI GIOVANNI, ILLUSTRATED BY BRYAN COLLIER
"She had not sought this moment but she was ready for it. When the policeman bent down to ask `Auntie, are you going to move?' all the strength of all the people through all those many years joined in her. She said, `No.'" This book presents an inspiring account of an event that shaped American history. Fifty years after her refusal to give up her seat on a Montgomery, Alabama, city bus, Mrs. Rosa Parks is still one of the most important figures in the American civil rights movement. This picture- book tribute to Mrs. Parks is a celebration of her courageous action and the events that followed.
