About the Book
Amanda Gorman reads inauguration poem, ‘The Hill We Climb’
Change Sings
Written by Amanda Gorman
Illustrated by Loren Long
In this stirring, much-anticipated picture book by inaugural Youth Poet Laureate and activist Amanda Gorman, anything is possible when our voices join together. As a young girl leads a cast of characters on a musical journey, they learn that they have the power to make changes—big or small—in the world, in their communities, and in most importantly, in themselves.
Change Sings is brought to life by #1 New York Times bestselling illustrator Loren Long, the artist behind Barack Obama’s children’s book Of Thee I Sing: A Letter to My Daughters. Written as a children’s anthem, Gorman’s book reminds the newest generation that they have the power to shape the word with their actions and voices.
