Join the Literary Freedom Project as they celebrate the 20th anniversary of Natasha Tarpley's seminal children's book "I Love My Hair."

Ms. Tarpley will join and read from her modern classic --a whimsical story that has celebrated the beauty of African-American hair for 20 years! It will be a day of books, culture, and more!

In this imaginative, evocative story, a girl named Keyana discovers the beauty and magic of her special hair, encouraging black children to be proud of their heritage and enhancing self-confidence.

I Love My Hair! has been a staple in African-American picture books for 20 years, and now has a fresh, updated cover that shines on the shelves!
