Do You Know What I'll Do?
Javaka Steptoe breathes new life into Charlotte Zolotow's classic text (first published in 1958 with illustrations by Garth Williams). The playful question-and-answer story expresses the affection between a big sister and little brother, illustrated here as African American children. Steptoe's dynamic cut-paper collages give a three-dimensional quality to each page, and his use of warm colors throughout underscores the close sibling relationship. ©2000 Cooperative Children's Book Center
