Life Doesn't Frighten Me from Stewart, Tabori and Chang Price: $12.21 Customer Review: I thought this book was excellent. It's a great poem for inspiration, as it is a reminder that we all have courage. Maya repeats the line, "Life doesn't frighten me at all", getting her message across.

Gather Together in My Name from Bantam Price: $5.85 Customer Review: Too often when I have read someone's memoirs or an autobiography I have had the suspicion that the author is painting a very self-serving portrait of the events in their lives.

Maya Angelou: Poems from Bantam Price: $6.29 Customer Review: Some poets, many poets, are hard to understand, and are downright boring. I have several poets that I love, and Maya is one of them. Black, white, whatever. They should have made us read her in High School. If we had, I would have gotten into poetry much sooner. This book should get 10 stars. |
