With arms outstretched, he envisions a life where the sun shines brightly, and dance and laughter fill the air. This powerful imagery, masterfully captured by Miyares’s artwork, ignites a spark within young readers, encouraging them to dream fearlessly and embrace their own boundless potential.
Langston Hughes’s timeless message of pride, joy, and the pursuit of a better life resonates deeply with readers of all ages. Daniel Miyares’s stunning illustrations breathe new life into Hughes’s words, creating a visual symphony that celebrates the indomitable spirit of resilience and the transformative power of dreams.
