The Entrance Place of Wonders: Poems of the Harlem Renaissance

Here's my confession. I loved this book so much I want to read it to myself every night before bed. And I don't even have children. I'm not particularly familiar with writing from the Harlem Renaissance, and this is a great introduction. But more than that the poems selected and the loving images are delightful, uplifting, engaging and warm. They touch and tickle the humanity of all--regardless of race or ethnic background. I'm buying some for Mother's Day gifts and B-day presents for grown folks and they will be stocking stuffers come Winter.
