Celebrate African American Authors and Illustators During Black History Month

The Brown Bookshelf is an website created to raise public knowledge of various wonderful African American authors and illustrators that contribute to children's literature with their work. During Black History Month in February, the website has an initative called "28 Days Later" that showcases a different author or illustator for each of the 28 days of the month. Today's spotlight is on author Glenda Armand. We have one of her books, Love twelve miles long (E ARMAND), in the Children's Department.
