Words burn bright in this joyful celebration of rap, creativity, and self-expression.


Welcome to the cypher!


Now huddle up nice and snug.


You feel that circle around you?


Well, that's a hip hop hug!


Starting with beatboxes and fingersnaps, an exuberant narrator introduces kids in his community to the powerful possibilities of rap, from turning a simple phrase/into imagery that soars to proclaiming, this is a voice that represents me! As Khodi Dill's rhymes heat up, the diverse crew of kids--illustrated in Awuradwoa Afful's bold, energetic style--gain self-confidence and a sense of freedom in this wonderful picture book debut that is perfect for reading aloud.
