We celebrate Maya Angelou on April 4, which would have been her 91st birthday. Here are some must-reads by the acclaimed author:
“I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings,” an autobiography, is Angelou’s best-known work. It encourages strength, hope and courage during trying times.
“And Still I Rise” is a collection of poetry. It contains poems about overcoming hardship, finding joy and celebrating the strength of women.
Angelou supported herself by working in a Creole restaurant, which led to the inspiration behind her cookbook, “Hallelujah! The Welcome Table.” She shares essays and recipes in this heartwarming book.
