Description:

And so begins this tender story of an African-American woman who takes her niece, Epaminondas, under her wing to teach him about the ways of the world. As they travel through their neighborhood, country stores, and city streets, Auntie Sara shares with Epaminondas all she knows-the stories of how his own parents came into being, why people are different colors or have different languages or live in different parts of the world. For its lyrical prose and touching portrayal of a loving aunt's deep affection for her young nephew, Epaminondas. From exploring the woods to playing hide-and-seek in the basement, Epaminondas and his Auntie find plenty to keep them busy. But he doesn't always remember to do what she tells him. This classic children's story takes readers on an enjoyable journey through Epaminondas' life where they learn just how important it is to listen when someone older and wiser tells you something.
