A must-read . . . . Evie and Sarah do an amazing job of giving you the framework needed to feel confident in your personal parenting situation.” —Heather Chauvin, TEDx speaker, podcaster, coach, and author of Dying to be a Good Mother Evie and Sarah bring such a bright, new take on “parenting books,” which usually focus on the child. This book takes EVERYONE into account. A must-read based on research, studies, and years of experience.” —Eli Weinstein, licensed master social worker, podcaster, and creator of ELIvation The publisher issues a notice regarding a design error occurring in the chart “Is Your Kid Too Sick to Leave the House?” on page 77 of the print book (chapter 2 in the eBook). The chart should advise against leaving the house with a child with a temperature of 100.4 and above. As stated by the authors, this book is not intended as a substitute for the medical advice of physicians. The reader should regularly consult a physician in matters relating to their health (and their children's) and particularly with respect to any symptoms that may require diagnosis or medical attention. The authors and publisher advise readers to take full responsibility for their safety.

Black Aesthetics and Formal Innovation in African American Poetry

By: Evie Shockley

Beginning with a deceptively simple question--what do we mean when we designate behaviors, values, or forms of expression as "black"?--Evie Shockley's Renegade poetics teases out the more complex and nuanced possibilities the concept has long encompassed. She redefines black aesthetics descriptively, resituating innovative poetry that has been marginalized becuase it was not "recognizably black" and avant-garde poetry dismissed because it was"--Back cover.
