Take a poetic walk down memory lane and enter childhood treasures of the heart with author Tanya Hamilton Kersey.

It's a day in the shade, as Tanya Hamilton Kersey reminisces under a big shady tree, remembering some unique childhood experiences with her father.

She pays tribute to great performing artists such as Mariam Makeba, Bobby Humphrey, Cat Stevens, and Roberta Flack.

Ms. Hamilton shares childhood memories of creative dance, and even a little pre-teen rebellion in a jazzy, upbeat kind of way.
