A graphic novel for children ages 7 to 10. Mae Jemison was the first Black woman to go to space. She is an astronaut, doctor, engineer, writer, teacher, and dancer. Her adventurous spirit has taken her from healing people around the world, to dancing on stage, to orbiting the earth on the space shuttle Endeavour. In all her work, she inspires others to follow their curiosity, believe in themselves, and reach for the stars. This is her story.

School Library Journal Starred Review - VERDICT: Young readers will love this book. Purchase at least two copies - one for the biography section and one for the graphic novel section. Students will be recommending this to others in no time.

The Moon Seed is a reimagining of the real events following the Apollo 14 mission, where an astronaut brought along a bag of seeds. This is the story of one of the seeds, back on Earth...but longing to return to the moon.

The stories of six daring, groundbreaking Black ballet dancers leap off the pages of this beautifully illustrated nonfiction picture book. Meet Essie Marie Dorsey, who in 1926 opened one of the first ballet schools for Black students; Arthur Mitchell, the first Black dancer with the New York City Ballet; Christian Holder, a principal dancer with the Joffrey Ballet; choreographer Dwight Rhoden; and present-day ballerinas Misty Copeland and Michaela DePrince. With a leap of faith and a love of dance, these Black Swans overcame obstacles and opened doors for all the children who dream of dancing.
School Library Journal starred review - VERDICT: A must for every collection, and a cornerstone for the dance shelves.
