"Seeing a need to create more literature that show "Seeing a need to create more literature that showcased joy for Black kids, Tarpley set forth and hasn’t looked back. 'We need some more opportunities for them to just be kids and explore who they are and love who they are,' Tarpley said. “That was the intention that I tried to embed in 'I Love My Hair!'— that idea of you are wonderful, all of the things that make you unique are wonderful. That whole positive, joyful message was very important to me.'" (Chicago Tribune) Natasha Tarpley will visit us with the first book of her new series on Thursday, February 2. Join us at the Carnegie Library in Oakland or online for Words & Pictures! #KidsBurgh #ThingsToDoInPittsburgh #PittsburghLife #ChildrensBooks #DiverseBooksForKids Words & Pictures with Natasha Tarpley is supported by Propel Homestead, Reading Ready Pittsburgh, and Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators – PA West. Words & Pictures is presented in partnership with Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh with support from EQT Foundation, The Grable Foundation, and J.B. Finley Charitable Trust through the PNC Charitable Trust Grant Review Committee
