    It's No Wonder Among Books Noted For Historical Value By Caribbean Life News

    Picture
    It’s No Wonder: The Life and Times of Motown’s Legendary Songwriter Sylvia Moy was named among a group of books written by women about women with historical value that should be on your radar.

    The complete listing appears in Caribbean Life News and was written by Terri Schlichenmeyer, owner of The Bookworm Sez where she writes for more than 200 newspapers and magazines around the U.S. and Canada.

    Some of the world’s largest concentrations of Caribbean people call New York City home, and Caribbean Life is their source for local news, commentary, politics, sports, arts, and culture. The tabloid with the unmistakable yellow-and-orange front page is now in its third decade of informing Caribbean New Yorkers about what’s going on back home and in their adopted city.

    To read the full article, go to: Put women into the historical record this month with these books – Caribbean Life

    Fun Fact: Jamilah Lemieux's soon-to-be released book, Black. Single. Mother: Real Life Tales of Longing and Belonging (3/10), is featured, too. Once upon a time the Chicago native and I worked together at Ebony magazine. 

    Though this is formally recognized as Women’s History Month and National Book Reading Month, please understand and know that both are forever!

    It's No Wonder on Da Capo is available to order everywhere books are sold. Da Capo is an imprint of Grand Central, which is a Division of the Hachette Book Group.
