Shop Brand CatalogThe People Could Fly: The Picture Book This is a 32 page picture book version of the late Virginia Hamilton's title story from her award-winning collection of American Black folktales, The People Could Fly which has sold more than 330,000 copies in its various editions and has earned $449,000 in anthology permissions just since 1991. The Dillons, who illustrated the 192 page collection in black and white, have now created all new glorious illustrations in full color for every page of this picture book. A tale about slaves seeking freedom, it is considered her most haunting and moving tale and second only to her Newbery book in sales. Like many books illustrated by the Dillons (see comparative sales) this will be a stand-out gift book for all seasons, all people, and it will also be THE showcase book during Black History Month.
