Description



About the Book



First published in 1932, "The Dream Keeper" is Langston Hughes's only collection of poems for children. It includes some of Hughes's best-known, best-loved and most powerful works, poems filled with spiritual energy.



Book Synopsis



Illus. in black-and-white. This classic collection of poetry is available in a handsome new gift edition that includes seven additional poems written after The Dream Keeper was first published. In a larger format, featuring Brian Pinkney's scratchboard art on every spread, Hughes's inspirational message to young people is as relevant today as it was in 1932.



Review Quotes




"There's no better way to show kids what poetry is about than to share this collection."--Booklist.
