That Is My Dream!

<p><strong>"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&nbsp;<em>Float.<br /></em></strong><br /> <strong><em>To fling my arms wide</em></strong><br /> <strong><em>In some place of the sun, </em></strong><br /> <strong><em>To whirl and to dance</em></strong><br /> <strong><em>Till the white day is done...</em></strong><br /><br /> 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.</p> <p>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&mdash;one full of freedom, hope, and wild possibility, where he can fling his arms wide in the face of the sun. <br /><br /> Hughes's powerful vision, brought joyously to life by Daniel Miyares, is as relevant&mdash;and necessary&mdash;today as when it was first written.</p>
