Awardwinning creators Sharifa RhodesPitts and Christopher Myerss picture bookJake Makes a World follows the creative adventures of the young Jacob Lawrence as he finds inspiration in the vibrant colors and characters of his community in Harlem.From his mothers apartment, where he is surrounded by brightly colored walls with intricate patterns; to the streets full of familiar and notsofamiliar faces, sounds, rhythms, and smells; to the art studio where he goes each day after school to transform his everyday world on an epic scale, Jake takes readers on an enchanting journey through the bustling sights and sounds of his neighborhood.Includes a reproduction of an actual Migration series panelRhodesPitts has written a clear, simple tale, told in present tense and filled with colorful imagery. Myerss art has a looser, sketchier quality than Lawrences more graceful figures, but both artists demonstrate a passion for vibrant, eyepopping colors that powerfully capture the African American experience.
