內容簡介: |
Illus. in full color. "Ringgold recounts the dream adventure
of eight-year-old Cassie Louise Lightfoot, who flies above her
apartment-building rooftop, the ''tar beach'' of the title, looking
down on 1939 Harlem. Part autobiographical, part fictional, this
allegorical tale sparkles with symbolic and historical references
central to African-American culture. The spectacular artwork
resonates with color and texture. Children will delight in the
universal dream of mastering one''s world by flying over it. A
practical and stunningly beautiful book."--starred "Horn
Book."
