Nikki Grimes's "One Last Word: Wisdom from the Harlem Renaissance" is an exceptional reference book for history and literature classes. It contains a short piece on the history of the Harlem Renaissance, artwork by noted artists, mini biographies for the poets featured, and an index. The author's own poetry, created with "The Golden Shovel Method" is also featured in this volume and would be excellent examples to use in a creative writing class. I would recommend this book to anyone.
I won my copy of this book from a giveaway on Goodreads and I appreciate the opportunity to read and review it.
*Note - I really enjoyed the artwork in this one.
