A collection of wisdom and life lessons from the beloved and bestselling author of I KNOW WHY THE CAGED BIRD SINGS. Dedicated to the daughter she never had but sees around her, Letter to my Daughter reveals Maya Angelou's path to a good and meaningful life.

Personally narrated with her unique style, this book transcends genres and categories: it is part guide, part memoir, part poetry - and an absolute delight.

"She moved through the world with unalterable calm, confidence, and a fierce grace... She will always be the rainbow in my clouds" - OPRAH WINFREY.

"She was important in so many ways. She started black women writers in the United States. She was generous to an excessive degree. She had nineteen talents - used ten. And she was a truly authentic personality. There is no resemblance" - TONI MORRISON.
