Notes From Your Bookseller
Jason Reynolds is a voice we listen to regardless of genre and age. In his picture book debut There Was a Party for Langston, with the help of the iconic art stylings of the Pumphrey Brothers (Jerome and Jarrett), we're called to celebrate the "King of Letters", Langston Hughes.
