Summary:

"From imaginative child to visionary storyteller, Toni Morrison was a fiercely inspiring writer that helped change the world. This poetic picture book biography is part love letter and part biography, praising the power of this Nobel Prize winner. With its tender refrain, readers will know how much Morrison's stories -- and their own -- mean to the world. She was loved -- and so are they! Who was Toni Morrison? She was a visionary, a storyteller, a daughter, a mother, a Howard graduate, a box-braider, weaving: Black pride, Black joy, Black families, Blackness. And most of all, she was loved."
