“Life is how you look at it.” And for Black photographer Roy DeCarava, life in his neighbourhood was beautiful. Follow Roy through 1940s Harlem, as he takes out his camera, pops in a roll of film, and opens his eyes to the beauty all around him. There’s a little boy drawing on the sidewalk with chalk. Snap! A young man at the bus stop with a baby in his arms. Snap! Kids playing in an open fire hydrant. Snap! Looking at them all, Roy sees beauty everywhere in Harlem, and so do the people who look at his photos.
This deeply researched picture book also includes additional information on DeCarava, a list of places to view his photos, a bibliography, and photos.
