Her mother tells her that her Granny Liza experienced the same, as did many of their people before her. Perhaps it's time, Mama says, to slip the bonds of earth and join the journey started long ago. To hold each other tight and rise. Drawing on lyrics from the song "We Could Fly" by Rhiannon Giddens and Dirk Powell, which in turn draw on a heritage of African folklore, this incantatory dialogue between a mother and daughter paired with startlingly beautiful illustrations celebrates love, resilience, and the spiritual power of the"old-time ways"- -tradition and shared cultural memory--to sustain and uplift."--|cProvided by publisher. 538 Requires Boundless App. 588 Description based on print version record. 650 0 African American girls|vJuvenile fiction. 650 0 Mother and child|vJuvenile fiction. 650 0 Grandparent and child|vJuvenile fiction. 650 0 Spirituals (Songs)|vJuvenile fiction. 650 0 Memory|vJuvenile fiction. 650 0 Folklore|zAfrica. 650 1 African American girls|vFiction. 650 1 Mother and child|vFiction. 650 1 Grandparent and child|vFiction. 650 1 Spirituals (Songs)|vFiction. 650 1 Love|vFiction. 650 1 Memory|vFiction. 650 1 Stories in rhyme. 650 1 Picture books. 650 1 Mothers and daughters|vFiction. 650 1 African Americans|vFiction. 655 7 Stories in rhyme.|2lcgft 655 7 Picture books.|2lcgft 655 7 Folk songs.|2lcgft 655 7 Song texts.|2lcgft 700 1 Uchendu, Briana Mukodiri,|eillustrator. 776 08 |iElectronic reproduction of (manifestation):|aGiddens, Rhiannon, 1977-|tWe could fly|dSomerville, Massachusetts : Candlewick Press, 2023|z9781536222548 |w(NjBwBT)bl2023174041 856 40 |uhttps://libid.boundless.baker-taylor.com/ng/view/library /title/0030429298|zFound on Boundless
