The Book Itch: Freedom, Truth & Harlem's Greatest Bookstore (Carolrhoda Picture Books)
Description
In Harlem, a young reader discovers the power of stories to shape identity, spark curiosity, and open doors to freedom. Guided by the spirit of a beloved bookstore, the book follows a child’s growing love of books as they learn how truth is found through reading, asking questions, and sharing ideas with others. With warmth and lyrical energy, it celebrates community, literacy, and the courage to seek knowledge—especially when the world feels uncertain. Vaunda Micheaux Nelson’s signature blend of history, heart, and accessible storytelling makes this a joyful invitation to turn every page into possibility.
