Kids books for February

Hear about three kids books for Black History Month, plus a nonfiction book about critters that suck (literally). Carol Roberts, head of Young People’s Services at Troy Public Library’s main branch, talks about the following books: “Hey You!” (Adeola, 2022); “Boogie Boogie, Y’all” (Esperanza, 2021); “Nina: A Story of Nina Simone” (Todd, 2021); and “Yuck, You Suck: Poems about Animals that Sip, Slurp, Suck” (Yolen & Stemple, 2022).
