Maya Angelou

So I am reading my first book by Maya Angelou called " I know why the caged bird sings". It starts off slow but then it gets very interesting. At one point Maya had me laughing hysterically, (no joke)! What makes this book so interesting is that its based on real events. Another reason this book is very interesting is the way she writes, it is so poetic and very touching it captivates me and all I want is more more more more. I look foward to reading all her autobiographeis and best of all poem books!! She is my new inspiration. A brave women with a voice. I am so grateful to have heard of such a beautiful women!

Look at all shes accomplished, its incrediable:

"acclaimed poet, historian, author, actress, playwright, civil rights activist, director, and producer.
She has written ten best-selling books, which have earned her Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award nominations. Beginning her career in drama and dance, she worked for civil rights in the United States during the 1960s and spent five years in Egypt and Ghana, where she taught and edited for English-language publications. In addition to her many television credits as producer, writer, and director, she received an Emmy nomination for acting in the miniseries Roots. Angelou teaches at Wake Forest University in North Carolina." www.scu.edu/.../Angelou/homepage.html
