Todd:Nina
A 2022 Coretta Scott King Book Award Honoree!
 
This luminous, defining picture book biography illustrated by Caldecott Honoree Christian Robinson, tells the remarkable and inspiring story of acclaimed singer Nina Simone and her bold, defiant, and exultant legacy.

Born Eunice Kathleen Waymon in small town North Carolina, Nina Simone was a musical child. She sang before she talked and learned to play piano at a very young age. With the support of her family and community, she received music lessons that introduced her to classical composers like Bach who remained with her and influenced her music throughout her life. She loved the way his music began softly and then tumbled to thunder, like her mother´s preaching, and in much the same way as her career. During her first performances under the name of Nina Simone her voice was rich and sweet but as the Civil Rights Movement gained steam, Nina´s voice soon became a thunderous roar as she raised her voice in powerful protest in the fight against racial inequality and discrimination.

An <b>engaging, affecting, and powerful</b> biography that aptly situates Simone s <b>enduring legacy</b> in musical and social history. <i>Publisher s Weekly</i>, <b>starred review</b><br><br> Todd s <b>musical prose</b> allows readers into Nina s perspective, and Robinson s scenes and portraits absolutely <b>sing with energy</b>, keeping pace perfectly with the text. . . Do not miss this complex story of an American legend. <i>Kirkus Reviews</i>, <b>starred review</b><br><br>   Some storytellers use words to entertain listeners and readers, while others share their tales in song. <i>Nina: A Story of Nina Simone</i> <b>gracefully brings the life</b> of one such legendary musician into readers hearts. . . Traci N. Todd s straightforward narration is <b>honest and candid</b> . . . [and] fans of Caldecott Honor illustrator Christian Robinson (<i>Last Stop on Market Street, The Bench</i>) will immediately recognize the <b>bold, distinct</b> shapes that are his hallmark.

[and] <b>visually rapturous</b> . . . Robinson imbues <i>Nina</i> with <b>sumptuous</b> colors . . . His elegantly simple figures recall the work of Ezra Jack Keats and occasionally Charles M. Schulz. . . Simone s precocity, which <b>shines</b> through . . . is <b>nurtured in intimate moments</b> sitting on her father s lap at the keyboard, letting him guide her as they play good-time jazz together, and on Sundays when she provides the rhythmic and rolling accompaniment to her minister mother s sermons. Todd brings <b>nuance</b> to Simone s musicianship in ways that should prove <b>instructive</b> to curious young readers. . . The journey to merge her astonishing virtuosity and professional achievements with her bold activism is summed up by the <b>arresting portrait</b> of the artist seated at her baby grand and flanked by four little Black girls. <i>The New York Times Book Review</i><br><br> Todd <b>moves effortlessly</b> between <b>silky narration</b> marked by <b>subtle wordplay</b>, and pointed references to Simone s <b>musical activism</b>. Robinson s collage compositions <b>convey critical civil rights context</b> in scenes playing out atop Simone s grand piano strings, often fiery images that contrast with the pictures of Simone s childhood origin story and her front-stage panache. <i>The Bulletin of the Center for Children´s Books</i>
