But sometimes *by L***A on Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2017* I have always believed, no, known that art is essential for human existence. The art of these souls from Harlem writing their truth in a time that was so blatantly difficult caused moments I had to put One Last Word down. Poetry always slows me down--in a good way. But sometimes, I needed to ponder difficulties over the dishes, then pick the book up again. There are hard things in beautiful words.Your response poems are beautiful, powerful. Each draws cords tight between our past and today. I can bring One Last Word to my students. They will get it.Nikki Grimes, your poems encourage people to put their energy into words. I wish more adults were doing this for young people. I’m so glad I can point to you, your body of work and especially One Last Word as a way into art. I’m glad for the conversations we readers can begin with…Jamar and Dina, Helena and Damian, Tanisha and Josh. They are in our families....and in your pages.Thank you for a short and sweet description of the golden shovel form, the Harlem Renaissance, and the preface. Today, we get so little time to teach history that short descriptions are welcome diving boards. Even the index is a text structure I will use with my library students...it’s a detail important in my world.Finally, I am in awe of the graphics in this book and the bios of each artist that include ways to see more, learn more. Pathways to further learning are a gift. And, I must add that the artistic notebook line graphics between poems are an invitation to write our own truths. Genius!Nikki Grimes, One Last Word, is spectacular. I can only imagine the care put into creating this beauty. You have always set a high bar as a poet….but this book, One Last Word, is a masterpiece. I predict many awards. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful writing *by K***R on Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2021* A gem with some of the best poems from poets we all adore. Poets from the Harlem Renaissance era. Every poem in here was special, heartwarming, touching and gorgeous. Nikki Grimes is a master at what she does. Some of my favorite poems from this book:-LIFE AND DEATH BY CLARA ANN THOMPSON- THE SCULPTOR BY NIKKI GRIMES-MOTHER TO SON BY LANGSTON HUGHES- TO A DARK GIRL BY GWENDOLYN BENNETT- NO IMAGES BY WARING CUNEYThe artwork in this book is so bold and beautiful. Give this book a go because we never know what we are missing in a book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hopefully not the last word... *by L***S on Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2018* As a teacher, I am always trying to find literature that is relatable to my students. "One Last Word" opened the dialogue, made my students think and got them believing that poetry is not so bad! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/40712812-one-last-word-wisdom-from-the-harlem-renaissance-hardcover-illustrated](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/40712812-one-last-word-wisdom-from-the-harlem-renaissance-hardcover-illustrated) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-16*
