Choose to be Curious
Ep. #190: Be Curious. Allow Your Heart & Your Mind to Open, with Amina Luqman-Dawson
08 Mar 2023
The well-deserved accolades pour in -- Newberry Medal, Coretta Scott King Award, Cyblis Award, and more -- but what caught my eye about Amina Luqman-Dawson's wonderful book Freewater was her deft deployment of curiosity. Whether as a springboard for her own writing and research, as an invitation to her readers, or the force that enables her characters' growth and literal freedom, curiosity in everywhere in this rich, evocative story of children escaping enslavement and finding their power. "Curiosity," she says, "is a wonderful place to begin."
