Books similar to Black Soul
Watch as a young boy traces his roots through the stories his grandmother shares with him about the events that shaped their cultural heritage with Black Soul, one of Kingston's 2022 Movies in the Square picks. You can also stream it for free through the National Film Board! Then, read these books for kids celebrating Black culture, history, and joy.
Pick up a beach read this summer!
A beach read often does have a vacation theme. Sometimes the setting is on an island, a beach, or camping and hiking in the wilderness. But can you be captivated by a book that has nothing to do with vacations and warm weather? Yes.
So is any book that captures your full attention and compels you to read for hours a beach read? Absolutely.
