Book Hour - Hip Hop Kids

On the show today, Mindy spoke with Nikki Giovanni, editor of a new book called Hip Hop Speaks to Children with CD: A Celebration of Poetry with a Beat (A Poetry Speaks Experience). It is a hip hop anthology that parents and kids with both enjoy. It share the rich and diverse history of the hip hop (vernacular) movement. Nikki talked about the "Rosa Parks" dance that is described in the book as well. The book comes with a wonderful CD. There is more information at Source Books.
