Homemade Love


by Bell Hooks
Illustrated by Shane W. Evans

Summary: This is a story about a girl and how she is loved by her parents. Her parents call her, "Girlpie" who knows that she is treasured and adored by her mother and father. Even when she makes a mistake, every hurt is healed and everything will be forgiven. Life will move on and she feels safe knowing she is loved.

Notes: I love this book. Taj loves the poetry in this book and the pictures bring the words to life. The main character has the freedom and charisma as a young child who explores the world. She feels safe knowing and having memories of her parents who will always be with her. This book is absolutely delightful to read.

Activities: Analyze the poetry, pictures to make inferences
