There Was a Party for Langston - GiGi's Gentle Storytime Read Aloud
A Read Aloud of the book There Was a Party for Langston by Jason Reynolds with art by Jerome Pumphrey & Jarrett Pumphrey.
This book was published by Atheneum/Caitlyn Dlouhy Books
Hi, Friends! Welcome to GiGi's Gentle Storytime!
"You are invited. To a marvelous party. For a most Marvelous man. A man who turned the alphabet into thump a bump. Who turned words into jazz into rivers into bustin' a move. All of his word-children will be there. Because it's a party for Langston. Langston Hughes. King o' Letters. Renaissance Man. So don't be shy. Come on in. To the Hoopla in Harlem. Everyone is welcome."
Thanks for listening to GiGi's Gentle Storytime. This started as an idea to read books virtually to my Godchild, Gio. With my passion for all things reading, story, and early childhood literacy, I wanted to open up this space for others to enjoy. This platform will mainly share stories featuring Black characters as a way for Black children to see themselves represented fully and embodied through imagination.
Check out the video versions of these podcasts on Youtube, @GiGisGentleStorytime, and TikTok, @gigis.gentle.storytime, to listen along with the illustrations.
