(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Jesse Joshua Watson. Through seventeen poems, Medina tells the story of the reggae icon, starting and ending with his Jamaican roots ("I am the boy / From Nine Miles..."). The lyric-like pieces are thoughtful and adept; appended notes explain the biographical events on which the poems are based. Watson's acrylics capture Marley's public magnetism as well as private, introspective moments.
