Life Doesn't Frighten Me

I love it

What not to love: Amazing artwork by the notable Basquait along with the enduring words of a great poet in Dr. Maya Angelou. Furthermore, I have observed that our children absolutely love both the visual and stylistic metric structure found within this book. Interpreted, amazing and necessary read for kids!!!

My friend has a son who said everything scares him so for his Christmas gift I got him this book and I am so glad that I did. Not only is the book beautiful but after reading and rereading the book he says that he is no longer afraid of anything. His confidence has definitely grown just from reading this book. Plus he reads it all the time. Definitely a very happy with this purchase.

Love this book by Dr. Maya Angelou. The artwork is awesome too by a very famous artist. My 8 year old grandson liked it and I bought one for him too. So, it's great for children and adults.

Even though this is a children's book I've only ever bought it for adults. And I've purchased 6 of them already. A great gift for somebody going through hard times. Beautiful illustrations and a beautiful message.

This is a wonderful book, both beautifully written and powerfully illustrated. I am a 3rd grade teacher, but I love this book mainly as a unique graduation gift for previous students of mine who are graduating from high school and remember me with graduation announcements. I love the combination of a gift that is both a primary book from their teacher, coupled with the larger message of the poem for the recipient who is soon embarking upon confronting life on his or her own! A very special and meaningful gift!

I bought this book because it could be seen on the bookshelves of most individuals interviewed on TV news programs. It is a child's book with significant meanings for all ages.

Must admit the illustrations by Jean-Michel Basquiat might be a little scary for children 8 and under. A good book to introduce children to poetry though. Maya Angelou's poetry is always easy to understand as she writes poems from the heart. I love, love her poem "In And Out Of Time". Beautiful and poetic. "Life Doesn't Frighten Me" will introduce your child to poetry and modern art, so I highly recommend as it will stir a child's imagination.

La fusione e lo scontro tra immagini, scrittura, parole è potentissima! The fusion and the clash between images, writing, words are very powerful!

Super creative for kids. Great way to introduce them to Maya Angelou and Jean-Michel Basquiat. And teaches a great life lesson.

８０年代のニューヨークアートに欠かせないバスキア。彼の生き方とその偉大な落書きともいえる絵画はいま見ても新鮮です。本物は、一枚うん億円するものものまでもあり、よくも悪くも、絵画に込められた思いと差別や画商などの存在を感じるアーテイストでした。しかし、そんなバスキアを手軽に、大人も子供も楽しめる作品としてお勧めの作品です。life dosen't frighten me at all の詩とともに。

Amazing book!

The perfect book to instill a FEARLESS attitude in your little one. This gift is great and the poem is sing-song so you will your child repeating after you. A great read for adults to have constant reminder that... "Life doesn't Frighten me... not all... not all."
