Tobe: A Critical Edition: New Views on a Children's Classic
Stella Gentry Sharpe
When Stella Gentry Sharpe's Tobe was first published in 1939, it was hailed as one of the first children's books to offer a dignified portrayal of an African American child and his family. This volume reproduces the original's text and images, places the book in the context of its time, and offers thought-provoking ways to read it anew.
