Who Will I Be, Lord? (Picture Book)
by Vaunda Micheaux Nelson
Random House Books for Young Readers
ISBN: 0375843426


To discover who she will be a young girl looks at her the members of her family past and present. A mailman, a preacher, a teacher, a pool shark, a jazzman, a car man, a mama; learning what each thinks is important and learning bit of wisdom from each family member. From Great-Granpap's "Nothin's more important than family" to Mama's "God gives us each some seeds to sow".


A story with religious overtones; whose message is that the person we become is up to us. That it's up to us to decide how the seeds that God gives us grow. A lyrical story illustrated with sweet and playful paint and charcoal sketches. The combination of elegant narrative and elegant art makes a wonderful combination and a wonderful reading experience.
