“Dream Variation,” one of Langston Hughes's most celebrated poems,
about the dream of a world free of discrimination and racial
prejudice, is now a picture book stunningly illustrated by Daniel
Miyares, the acclaimed creator of Float. To fling my arms wide In
some place of the sun, To whirl and to dance Till the white day is
done…. Langston Hughes's inspiring and timeless message of pride,
joy, and the dream of a better life is brilliantly and beautifully
interpreted in Daniel Miyares's gorgeous artwork. Follow one
African-American boy through the course of his day as the harsh
reality of segregation and racial prejudice comes into vivid focus.
But the boy dreams of a different life—one full of freedom, hope,
and wild possibility, where he can fling his arms wide in the face of
the sun. Hughes's powerful vision, brought joyously to life by Daniel
Miyares, is as relevant—and necessary—today as when it was first
written.
