Josephine: The Dazzling Life of Josephine Baker by Patricia Hruby Powell

5.0

I really enjoyed this book, which tells the life of Josephine Baker through verse. Baker was an extraordinary performer as well as a civil rights activist, and this book paints a beautiful portrait of her beginnings in poverty, her rise to fame and her works of activism. I think this book will inspire and engage many students and I would love to include it in my classroom library.
