Josephine

In exuberant verse and stirring pictures, Patricia Hruby Powell and Christian Robinson create an extraordinary portrait for young people in Josephine: The Dazzling Life of Josephine Baker. The passionate performer and civil rights advocate Josephine Baker worked her way from the slums of St. Louis to the grandest stages in the world. Meticulously researched by both author and artist, Baker’s powerful story of struggle and triumph is an inspiration and a spectacle, just like the legend herself.
