Description

Acclaimed anthropologist, folklorist, and novelist Zora Neale Hurston traveled the back roads of the agricultural South, collecting stories from men, women, and children in Florida, Alabama, Georgia, and Louisiana in order that the spirit and richness of the oral storytelling tradition may well be shared and preserved. What’s the Hurry, Fox? is a sampling of news from Every Tongue Were given To Confess, Ms. Hurston’s third volume of folktales collected from the Gulf statesin the 1930s. They have got been moderately adapted and shaped by National Book — and Coretta Scott King Award–winning writer Joyce Carol Thomas to appeal to the sensibilities of young readers. Caldecott Honor — and Coretta Scott King Award-winning artist Bryan Collier adds his unique vision with collages that capture the wealthy heritage and rural community setting of the stories which might be Ms. Hurston’s legacy to us.
