Description

When it was once first published, Crossing Bok Chitto took readers by marvel. This moving and original story concerning the intersection of Native and African American citizens received starred reviews and plenty of awards, including being named an ALA Notable Kids’s Book and a Jane Addams Honor Book. Jeanne Rorex Bridges’ illustrations mesmerized readers—Publishers Weekly noted that her “strong, solid figures gaze squarely out of the frame, beseeching readers to concentrate, empathize and beauty.”

Choctaw storyteller Tim Tingle blends songs, flute, and drum to bring the lore of the Choctaw Nation to life in full of life historical, personal, and conventional stories.

Artist Jeanne Rorex Bridges traces her heritage back to her Cherokee ancestors.
