Grandma and Corey is a children's book written and illustrated by Atlanta artist Corey Barksdale, telling a personal, quilt-inspired story of family and generational memory in Nashville.
Like Barksdale's other children's books — Love on the Bayou and Affirmations — Grandma and Corey pairs original artwork with a story rooted in family, heritage, and everyday Black life. Barksdale also illustrated The Night Before Freedom: A Juneteenth Story. See all of his books on the children's books page.
