Today, June 7 is Gwendolyn Brooks’ birthday. Before she was a Pulitzer Prize winner, she was a little girl with a gift. Her mother ‘saw’ her and provided acknowledgement, encouragement and support. Let’s be that for our kids— our children, nieces, nephews and yes, our neighbors. Ms Brooks’s said it best, “We are each other’s harvest; we are each other’s business; we are each other’s magnitude and bond.” Happy Birthday Gwendolyn Brooks. You speak still. #globalgwen #happybirthdaygwendolynbrooks #abramsbooksforyoungreaders #authorsslade #exquisite #abramskids #cozbicabrera https://www.instagram.com/p/CBH_MI2HdNI/?igshid=bhvo1z1utiou
