“Anyone can fly,” Cassie Louise Lightfoot tells her little brother, BeBe. In this allegorical story quilt, author and artist Faith Ringgold speaks in the voice of indomitable young Cassie, who rises above life’s challenges and into her dreams. In words and pictures, Ringgold shares a nighttime journey from the real “tar beach”—the summertime Harlem rooftop of her youth—to starry skies full of hope. Revel in her tale while you put together this lively 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle. “The next thing you know, you’re flying among the stars.”
