Synopsis
Maya Angelou's beautiful, moving, and beloved poem, which she first read at the 2005 White House tree-lighting ceremony, comes alive as a fully illustrated children's book, celebrating the promise of peace in the holiday season.
Children will be inspired by Angelou's words and touched by Steve Johnson and Lou Fancher's illustrations. Their textured, softly glowing images perfectly complement Angelou's resonant poem by telling the simple story of a family who join with their community--rich and poor, Black and white, Christian, Muslim, and Jewish--to celebrate the holidays.

It is the Glad Season.
Thunder ebbs to silence and lightning sleeps quietly in the corner.
Floodwaters recede into memory.
Snow becomes a yielding cushion to aid us
As we make our way to higher ground.
