Harlem's Little Blackbird: The Story of Florence Mills

Florence Mills, one of the great singers of the Harlem Renaissance, was born to formerly enslaved parents in 1896. She loved singing from a young age and would go on to become a star on Broadway in the 1920s. Even as she succeeded though, Florence saw the extent to which prejudice and inequality shaped her experience of the world and fought hard for civil rights and against racism. A beautifully written and illustrated book, perfect for introducing young children to Florence Mills' inspirational story.
