Thomas has one wild, vivid, stupendous imagination.  He is working on a project for school and must choose an occupation. He gets stuck but remembers that his parents always told him to dream big, BOLD dreams. Thrive Black Boy is filled with exuberant and jaunty illustrations that seem to jump off the pages at the reader. This young African American boy discovers individuality, entrepreneurship, and learns all about the endless possibilities once he lets his imagination soar.
