Special Arrow: Tristan Strong Punches a Hole in the Sky by Kwame Mbalia
It’s never been done before! A Brave Writer Special Issue Arrow! What?
Yes, here it is! We’re excited! A chance for you to experience an Arrow over the summer!
From the moment we read Tristan Strong Punches a Hole in the Sky by Kwame Mbalia, we knew it needed to be an Arrow. So, why not make it part of the year-long Arrow program? Well, it’s packed full of so much goodness that it could not be contained in under 400 pages. In fact, it’s almost 500 pages!
That’s a lot of book to read and study in one month, so the Special Issue Arrow was born!
You can buy it now and enjoy it as a summer read while engaging in Big Juicy Conversations about:
- friendship,
- loss,
- storytelling,
- grammar,
- Black American folk heroes,
- and more!
