Introduction by Arnold Rampersad.
Langston Hughes, born in 1902, came of age early in the 1920s. In The Big Sea he recounts those memorable years in the two great playgrounds of the decade--Harlem and Paris. In Paris he was a cook and waiter in nightclubs. He knew the musicians and dancers, the drunks and dope fiends. In Harlem he was a rising young poet--at the center of the Harlem Renaissance. Arnold Rampersad writes in his incisive new introduction to The Big Sea, an American classic: This is American writing at its best--simpler than Hemingway; as simple and direct as that of another Missouri-born writer...Mark Twain.

Описание:
Langston Hughes's stories about Jesse B. Semple--first composed for a weekly column in the Chicago Defender and then collected in Simple Speaks His Mind, Simple Takes a Wife, and Simple Stakes a Claim--have been read and loved by hundreds of thousands of readers. In The Best of Simple, the author picked his favorites from these earlier volumes, stories that not only have proved popular but are now part of a great and growing literary tradition.
Simple might be considered an Everyman for black Americans. Hughes himself wrote: ..".these tales are about a great many people--although they are stories about no specific persons as such. But it is impossible to live in Harlem and not know at least a hundred Simples, fifty Joyces, twenty-five Zaritas, and several Cousin Minnies--or reasonable facsimiles thereof."
As Arnold Rampersad has written, Simple is "one of the most memorable and winning characters in the annals of American literature, justly regarded as one of Hughes's most inspired creations."
Langston Hughes was born in Joplin, Missouri, went to Cleveland, Ohio, lived for a number of years in Chicago, and long resided in New York City's Harlem. He graduated form Lincoln University in 1929 and was awarded an honorary Litt. D. in 1943. He was perhaps best known as a poet and the creator of Simple, but he also wrote novels, biography, history, plays (several of them Broadway hits), and children's books, and he edited several anthologies. Mr. Hughes died in 1967.

Описание:
First published in 1930, "Not Without Laughter" is the debut novel by Langston Hughes and a deeply personal, semi-autobiographical tale of an African-American family in rural Kansas. Langston Hughes, born in 1902 in Joplin, Missouri, spent much of his youth in Lawrence, Kansas and it is here that he set his first novel. "Not Without Laughter" tells the story of young Sandy Rogers as he grows from a boy to a young man and focuses on his "awakening to the sad and beautiful realities of black life in a small Kansas town". Sandy clashes with his irresponsible father, Jimboy, and relies on the hard work of his mother Annjelica and his tough grandmother, Aunt Hager, to survive the challenges of poverty and race in early-twentieth century rural America. Sandy's struggles mirror that of Hughes, who also had a strained and difficult relationship with his often absent father and was mainly raised by his maternal grandmother, a proud and strong woman who installed in Hughes a deep pride in his African-American heritage. "Not Without Laughter" is a powerful and moving portrait of race and poverty in America, as well as an important and inspiring story of hope and perseverance. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.

If you want to make bedtime into a memorable experience while giving your child all the benefits that come with reading bedtime stories, then keep reading...
Children love bedtime stories, and they serve an important role in helping a child develop his or her imagination in ways that visual media can't.
Though the reader will paint a picture with their words, the child will be left to fill in the details with their own imagination.
This self-generation of the story you convey will build your child's creativity levels and will help relax your child.
If you read to him or her in a calm and gentle manner, it will help relieve the tension your child has built up during the day and allow them to slip off into a deep and soothing sleep.
We often fail to recognize just how important a good night's sleep is to a child's wellbeing; that deep sleep sets them up for the following day.
With this guide and a good night's rest, you will see them wake up in a better mood and free from any stress that lack of sleep invariably causes.
Finally, there is another important aspect to consider. Reading to a child is far more than just an act of storytelling; you are going with your child on an adventure.
You become a part guide, part companion, and part co-conspirator. You also become someone who can be trusted and someone to share in some of the child's most formative memories. Set aside your own cares and concerns for a few minutes and enjoy the journey with them.
If done well, it will be a journey that your child will remember forever. Even if the details of the witches, dragons, and unicorns escapes them, they will always remember their traveling companion.
The benefits are:
Helps children prepare for a deeper, more relaxed sleep
Encourages the development of imagination
Generates a greater level of creativity
Healing sleep prepares the child for the following day
Creates an important bond between listener and reader
Provides a child with lifelong memories they will pass on to the next generation
Encourages a child to want to learn to read
And teaches a few life lessons along the way
