The song "God Bless the Child" was first performed by legendary jazz vocalist
Billie Holiday in 1939 and remains one of her enduring masterpieces. In this
picture book interpretation, renowned illustrator Jerry Pinkney has created
images of a family moving from the rual South to the urban North during the
Great Migration that reached its peak in the 1930s. The song's message of
self-reliance still speaks to us toda but resonates even stronger in its
historical context. This extraordinary book stands as a tribute to all those
who dared so much to get their own. A free CD of Billie Holiday's timeless
recording of "God Bless the Child" is included to enjoy along with the book.
