From the Rippey Library shelves – From the biography shelves is an interesting and compelling book, “Mom & Me & Mom” by Maya Angelo, noted author and poet. The author shares her extraordinary life with the deepest story of her life and relationship with her mother, Vivian Baxter, through the triumphs and struggles. Also worth reading is her autobiography, “I Know Why the Caged Sings.” ~by Nancy Hanaman
