Tasha''s Voice

★★★★★
★★★★★

English

By (author): Carmen Bogan

Illustrated by: Daria Peoples, Floyd Cooper

In this companion to the ground-breaking Where's Rodney?, a Black girl finds connection on a day out in nature.

Tasha is a girl who has trouble using her voice to speak in school or to even make a friend. Then her class visits a park, the best park ever. With the help of an encouraging park ranger, an understanding teacher, some new companions, and a tiny turtle, Tasha finds her voice. 

This story takes place on the same class trip featured in Carmen Bogan's and Floyd Cooper's Wheres Rodney?, once more showing the power of nature to transform a child.

Beloved illustrator Floyd Cooper began the illustrations for this book; his mentee Daria Peoples finished them. In the back of the book, readers will learn how the book was completed following Cooper's passing in 2021 and will find two of his original sketches.
