Navigate Your Stars

Finished April 9
Navigate Your Stars by Jesmyn Ward, illustrated by Gina Triplett

This speech was given by author Jesmyn Ward and the Tulane University 2018 commencement, and speaks to the rewards of hard work and perseverance, and the value of respect. She describes her own challenges and those of her family, and was an inspiration to those that attended.
It has now been released as a short book and illustrated beautifully by Triplett to make this book a great keepsake for any graduate.
