A lovely book celebrating nature and Black voices enjoying nature. - BookRiot, "Riot Recommendations"

Tasha is a girl who has trouble using her voice to speak in school or to even make a friend. Then her class visits a park, the best park ever, where she finds connection with others and her own voice.

This story takes place on the same class trip featured in Carmen Bogan's and Floyd Cooper's groundbreaking Where's Rodney?, once again showing the power of nature to transform a child.

Beloved illustrator Floyd Cooper began the artwork for this book; his illustration mentee Daria Peoples finished them. In the back of the book, readers will learn how the book was completed following Cooper's passing in 2021 and will find two of his original sketches.
