Description
"Toni Morrison was, and remains, a true titan of the arts. The lasting impact of her work, both as an editor and author, simply cannot be overstated. But before she was the Pulitzer Prize and Nobel Prizewinning author that we all know and love, she was a little girl in Ohio, the only Black child in her first-grade classroom and the only student who was able to read. This is the true story of how that young girl left her impact on a world that she lovedthe world of literature"--,Provided by publisher.
