Feed your mind : a story of August Wilson / by Jen Bryant ; illustrated by Cannaday Chapman.

Bryant, Jen, 1960- (author.). Chapman, Cannaday, (illustrator.).

Summary:

"August Wilson (1945-2005) was a two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright who had a particular talent for capturing the authentic, everyday voice of Black Americans. As a child, he read off soup cans and cereal boxes, and when his mother brought him to the library, his whole world opened up. After facing intense prejudice at school from both students and some teachers, August dropped out. However, he continued reading and educating himself independently. He felt that if he could read about it, then he could teach himself anything and accomplish anything." -- amazon.com
