Rosa
illustrated by Bryan Collier, written by Nikki Giovanni, and published by Henry Holt and Company
About
91´«Ã½
From the arresting cover through the endpapers, Rosa, with Giovanni’s spare, elegant prose and Collier’s iconic illustrations, celebrates the quiet courage of Rosa Parks. Collier’s radiant watercolors of faces and hands highlighted against the edges of his richly colored collages create another distinguished work of art from this award-winning illustrator.
