Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

A charming story told from an unusual point of view. A delicious and delightful way to introduce Child's work to the younger generation and to upcoming gourmet chefs!

Courage Has No Color: The True Story of the Triple Nickles: America's First Black Paratroopers
by
Tanya Lee Stone

Siebert Medallist and established author of several books, Tanya Lee Stone, has written another book worthy of the highest honors and awards. The story of Tuskagee and the bravery of the African Americans who contributed to the war effort was known to me and I am delighted that this book will make their story available to a wider audience. Not just merely "known" to a wider audience, but actually told in a way that is absolutely riveting. Just as her story about the "13 women who dared to dream" read the way the best fiction reads, so does "Courage has no color". Stone does extensive and painstaking research - and this book's depth reveals how much hard work she has done, in addition to displaying her remarkable talent as one of today's foremost nonfiction writers for children and young adults.
