About

In this movie, you’ll learn about Eloise Greenfield, an African-American writer and poet. She grew up in a time when blacks and people of other races were treated unfairly just because of the color of their skin. Eloise Greenfield thought there were not enough books about families and communities like hers, so she decided to write her own stories and poems. She has written stories, biographies, and poetry for kids. Her poems are very musical and use rhythm, rhyme, and repetition. Find out how this author’s books continue to inspire readers!
