He dreamed about heroes like Booker T. Washington, who was black just like him. When he heard the clackety-clack of train wheels, he dreamed about the places it had been. But most of all, he dreamed about having a happy home. And so, one day, he began turning those dreams into beautiful prose. As he did, he discovered where his home really was--in the words and rhythms of his poetry that reached people all over the world. The beloved Langston Hughes comes to life in a book for poets, dreamers, children, and adults--anyone who has ever thought of what home means to them. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Teachers looking for a good way to introduce youngsters to this prominent poet will find this book to be an excellent accompaniment to his work.\" --\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Like Hughes' poetry, the power of Cooper's story is that it confronts sadness even as it transcends it.\" --\u003ci\u003eBooklist \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"His text is as inviting as his illustrations.\" --\u003ci\u003eThe New York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Floyd Cooper\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0698116127\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780698116122\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Puffin Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/02\/1998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.22h x 7.98w x 0.13d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.5\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Lower Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e58955 \/ Coming Home: From the Life of Langston Hughes\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Floyd Cooper","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44044868124927,"sku":"9780698116122","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a2c75bc3-9629-4ef5-b1b4-9ebae294bb01.jpg?v=1684975375","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/coming-home-floyd-cooper-9780698116122","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
