A Night Out with Mama
Author(s): Quvenzhané Wallis
From Academy Award–nominated actress Quvenzhané Wallis comes a story about glitz, glamour, and the most important thing of all—family.
A very talented little girl has a very special night ahead of her. A night where she’ll get to wear a new dress in the most beautiful shade of blue with shoes that match it perfectly. A night where she’ll get to ride in the biggest car she’s ever seen! A night that will, of course, include ice cream.
But most special of all, it will be a night out with her mama.
Review(s):
*"Expressively illustrated with Brantley-Newton's characteristically upbeat illustrations, the book exudes positivity...and excitement and tells a unique story. As (at 9) the youngest contender to date for an Academy Award best actress prize, Wallis narrates a story well worth reading and sharing."
"...readers should relate to an ebullient heroine whose family makes her feel loved and grounded—no matter where life takes her."
"Charming, expressive illustrations vibrantly depict each scene, nicely capturing the girl’s excitement and her family’s support and affection throughout....kids will appreciate that, whether everyday or singular experiences, it’s sharing them with loved ones that matters most."
