Description:
<p><strong>Words burn bright in this joyful celebration of rap, creativity, and self-expression.</strong></p>

<p><em>“Welcome to the cypher!</em></p>

<p><em>Now huddle up nice and snug.</em></p>

<p><em>You feel that circle around you?</em></p>

<p><em>Well, that’s a hip hop hug!”</em> </p>

<p>Starting with beatboxes and fingersnaps, an exuberant narrator introduces kids in his community to the powerful possibilities of rap, from turning “a simple phrase/into imagery that soars” to proclaiming, “this is a voice that represents me!” As Khodi Dill’s rhymes heat up, the diverse crew of kids—illustrated in Awuradwoa Afful’s bold, energetic style—gain self-confidence and a sense of freedom in this wonderful picture book debut that is perfect for reading aloud. </p>
