Langston Hughes' much loved poem "I, Too, Am America" is given a dramatic new form by four-time Caldicot award winning illustrator Bryan Collier. 

Originally written in 1926, "I, Too, Am America" retains its relevance in the present day, and its words are inscribed on the walls of the National Museum of African American History in Washington DC.  You'll find this excellent picture book in our youth section, and the original poem via this link to the Poetry Foundation's website.
