Description of Yaya and the Sea by Karen Good Marable
A family goes on a trip from the city to the sea in search of renewal in this stunningly rendered picture book that’s an ode to sisterhood, nature, and being present.
On the first day of spring, when the city is quiet and still, little Yaya takes the A train down to New York City’s southern shores with her mama and aunties to greet Mama Ocean and celebrate the arrival of a new season through a ritual of letting go of the past and embracing the new.
