February is Black History Month and I stumbled upon an Instagram post recommending Best Children's Books to Celebrate Black History Month ( https://www.instagram.com/p/DUVdF4clHAW/?igsh=MXByaHo3cjFrcHpxYQ== ). For me, that post was perfect since I want to read more about Black History. Both for me and for my son. Children's Books, so far, are the best medium for my son (and me!) to learn something new, that's why I choose Children's Books to Celebrate Black History Month.

"... nobody can ever cuff your beautiful and brilliant mind."

I found the Read Aloud video on YouTube ( https://youtu.be/OzBI0iYdoGA?feature=shared ). Tausha, the channel handles, read the book beautifully. My son and I loved her voice so much. It was clear and comforting. By the end of the reading, she delivered the value(s) of the story. My son and I enjoyed it so much.
The storyline of the book was really good. It reminded the readers that we could be anything we think of. We need to stand up for ourselves and be strong like people before us.
The used of "flying" as metaphor of doing what we want was really good. My son almost quickly caught the hidden messages of flying in the story. Flying as to using your imagination to explore more.

"... remember somebody somewhere at some point had to figure out they could fly."
---
This book was also mentioned a little bit of racism as the product of ignorant. This part of the book, my son was sad for the characters in the book and said to me that he would never do that. I am so proud of him. However, the ending was beautiful and inspiring.

"... somebody somewhere at some point had to figure out they were ready for any new thing coming their way."

What a beautiful book! I am so glad I stumbled upon the Instagram post recommending this book and Tausha's YouTube channel reading this book as beautiful.
