Book Reading: Life Doesn’t Frighten Me by Maya Angelou/Jean-Michel Basquiat

“The American poet Maya Angelou's ‘Life Doesn't Frighten Me’ was first published as a picture book (illustrated by the painter Jean-Michel Basquiat) in 1993. In this poem, a little girl claims that she's not the least bit frightened of—well, anything, from ‘panthers’ to ‘tough guys.’ While her list of the things she's not frightened of might hint she's actually a little more scared than she's letting on, her bravado makes it clear that she has the courage to face her fears. This poem suggests that it takes real and admirable bravery to be a kid.”

Virtual readings are Fridays prior to the Saturday in-person event. The book reading will prepare children for the activity to come the next day.
