Tony, Grammy, and Emmy Award winner Cynthia Erivo (
The Color Purple, Harriet) has penned her first book for young readers,
Remember to Dream, Ebere, which will be published in hardcover from Little, Brown Books for Young Readers September 28.
The picture book, illustrated by Charnelle Pinkney Barlow, is a tale of a mother and child and the dreams they build together. When Ebere's mother puts her to bed at night, she always says, "Remember to dream, Ebere." And dream, she does, imagining herself as the captain of a rocket ship with the ability to go anywhere in the universe.
