School Belongs to Me is the winner of the 2022 Bookfest award for children's multicultural books. It brings African American education heritage to light through a story of how, during the segregation era, African American families sacrificed to build schools for their children. The book follows Tommy, who travels from New Jersey to visit his grandmother in North Carolina. She takes him to visit the historic Rosenwald school she attended as a child, and where she and others in the community are preparing to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the school their family helped to build. At the same time, Tommy is proud to share a surprise with her from his school. Written by Claudia Stack whose award-winning documentaries focus on African American sharecropping.
