Description
"'My little dark baby, / My little earth-thing, / My little love-one, / What shall I sing / For your lullaby?' With gracefully chosen words as smooth as a song, the poet Langston Hughes celebrates the love between an African American mother and her baby. Award-winning illustrator Sean Qualls's painted and collaged artwork captures universally powerful maternal moments with tenderness and whimsy. Like little love-ones, this beautiful book is a treasure."--,Amazon.
