Jump at the sun : the true life tale of unstoppable storycatcher Zora Neale Hurston / Alicia D. Williams ; illustrated by Jacqueline Alcántara.

Williams, Alicia, 1970- (author.). Alcántara, Jacqueline, (illustrator.).

Summary:

Zora was a girl who hankered for tales like bees for honey. Now, her mama always told her that if she wanted something, "to jump at de sun", because even though you might not land quite that high, at least you'd get off the ground. So Zora jumped from place to place, from the porch of the general store where she listened to folktales, to Howard University, to Harlem. And everywhere she jumped, she shined sunlight on the tales most people hadn't been bothered to listen to until Zora. The tales no one had written down until Zora. Tales on a whole culture of literature overlooked ... until Zora. Until Zora jumped.-- Amazon.com.
