By Darcie Caswell
This February, the Central Rappahannock Regional Library celebrates African American history with online programs for all ages that can be found at librarypoint.org/african-american-history.

âBedtime Bonnetâ by Nancy Redd and illustrated by Nneka Myers. A little girl watches as all the members of her family get ready for bed. Her brother twists his locs and slips on a durag, her mother wraps her curls in a scarf, her grandma puts her hair in rollers and a kerchief. While her mother lovingly braids the little girlâs hair, her grandpa tells jokes that make her laugh. But when the little girl canât find her bedtime bonnet to protect her hair while she sleeps, she calls on the entire family to help search the house.

A new take on Baldwin by Kim McLarin, a slew of honors for local children's publisher Candlewick, and a new book that thinks about what we eat, and why

A new take on Baldwin by Kim McLarin, a slew of honors for local children’s publisher Candlewick, and a new book that thinks about what we eat, and why

Kim McLarin's new book explores her own life and a novel of James Baldwin.
Bookingmarking Baldwin
Kim McLarin, award-winning author of “Womanish: A Grown Black Woman Speaks on Love and Life” and associate professor at Emerson College, explores the James Baldwin novel “Another Country” in a new book part of Ig Publishing’s “Bookmarked” series in which authors examine how a famous text influenced their path to both writing and being. In lucid, stirring prose, McLarin writes of her childhood, understanding herself as an outsider in her family and in school; she writes of her struggles at Exeter Academy, and her career in journalism, including at the New York Times. Through the lens of Baldwin’s novel, she looks at womanhood and manhood, sexuality, racism, learning from Baldwin about clarity, courage, fear, innocence, obligation, and, above all, “how to pay attention.” McLarin is forthright, candid, clear, demonstrating on every page “a willingness to look at things and see them as they are.” As she writes, “This sounds simple. It is not.” The book is a sensitive look at the nuances of Baldwin’s novel and its role in McLarin’s coming of age as a writer and a welcome addition to the series: of the 14 books in the Bookmarked series so far, only two of the authors are women, and only one concerns a work written by a woman.
