Parker Looks Up: An Extraordinary Moment
by Parker Curry (Author), Jessica Curry (Author) and Brittany Jackson (Illustrator)
Booktalk: Two-year-old Parker, along with her baby sister and her mother, and her best friend Gia and Gia’s mother, walk the halls of a museum, seeing paintings of everyone and everything from George Washington Carver to Frida Kahlo, exotic flowers to graceful ballerinas. Then, Parker walks by Sherald’s portrait of Michelle Obama–and almost passes it. But she stops…and looks up!
When a nearby museum-goer snapped a photo of a mesmerized Parker, it became an internet sensation. Now Parker tells her own story, with the help of her mother.
