Each Friday I share the link to a read-aloud preview of a book from SRCSA library. The “First-chapter Friday” selection for Nov. 18, 2022 is Take the Mic, a short-story collection edited by Bethany C. Morrow.
This anthology features fictional stories — in poems, prose, and art — that reflect a slice of the varied and limitless ways that readers like you resist every day. Take the Mic features work by literary luminaries and emerging talent alike: including Newbery-winner Jason Reynolds, New York Times bestseller Samira Ahmed, Keah Brown, Laura Silverman, L.D. Lewis, Darcie Little Badger, Sofia Quintero, Ray Stoeve, Yamile Mendez, and Connie Sun, with cover and interior art by Richie Pope. Today’s reading selection is from “Grace” by Darcie Little Badger.
