About this listen

A Coretta Scott King Honor Book

Odyssey Honor Audiobook

A thoughtful celebration of Black girlhood by award-winning author and poet Renée Watson.


In this semi-autobiographical collection of poems, Renée Watson writes about her experience growing up as a young Black girl at the intersections of race, class, and gender.

Using a variety of poetic forms, from haiku to free verse, Watson shares recollections of her childhood in Portland, tender odes to the Black women in her life, and urgent calls for Black girls to step into their power.

Black Girl You Are Atlas encourages young readers to embrace their future with a strong sense of sisterhood and celebration. This collection offers guidance and is a gift for anyone who listens to it.
