Her mama shares that once, long ago, their ancestors actually could fly. Every night they would slip away and soar through the skies, searching for safety, looking for the promised land. Mama feels in her bones that her daughter is meant to follow those old ways, like her grandmother before her. So Mama grabs hold of her hand, and together they join the freedom journey that was started long ago. With exquisite illustrations by Briana Mukodiri Uchendu, Rhiannon Giddens's We Could Fly weaves strands of Black American folklore and spiritual tradition into a shimmering, lyrical celebration of the enduring power of love and resilience to sustain and uplift." --$$cJacket flap. 001488242 5211_ $$a6-9 years. 001488242 5212_ $$aGrades 1-4. 001488242 586__ $$aJohn Steptoe Award for New Talent, illustrator, 2024 001488242 650_0 $$aAfrican American girls$$vJuvenile fiction. 001488242 650_0 $$aMother and child$$vJuvenile fiction. 001488242 650_0 $$aGrandparent and child$$vJuvenile fiction. 001488242 650_0 $$aSpirituals (Songs)$$vJuvenile fiction. 001488242 650_0 $$aMemory$$vJuvenile fiction. 001488242 650_0 $$aFolklore$$zAfrica. 001488242 650_1 $$aMothers and daughters$$vFiction. 001488242 650_1 $$aLove$$vFiction. 001488242 650_1 $$aMemory$$vFiction. 001488242 650_1 $$aAfrican Americans$$vFiction. 001488242 650_1 $$aStories in rhyme. 001488242 650_1 $$aPicture books. 001488242 655_0 $$aPicture books. 001488242 655_7 $$aPicture books.$$2lcgft 001488242 655_7 $$aFolk songs.$$2lcgft 001488242 655_7 $$aSong texts.$$2lcgft 001488242 7001_ $$aUchendu, Briana Mukodiri,$$eillustrator. 001488242 7102_ $$aCandlewick Press,$$epublisher. 001488242 852__ $$bcmc$$hPZ7.1.G3722$$iWe 2023 001488242 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1488242$$pGLOBAL_SET 001488242 980__ $$aBIB 001488242 980__ $$aBOOK
