This was definitely not one of the best books I've ever read. It seems to drag out a lot and the theme isn't really that clear. It isn't a horrible book, but I wouldn't read this book unless I had to.
HAH! I'm in sixth grade and I had to read a prejudice book! I loved it! It is such a good book but it gets confusing a little at the end.
this is a book that is based on an average person life not one of those regular folk tale you here every day...follow me please
If Social Studies seems boring to you, read this book! It makes the Civil Rights Movement real in ways that I can't always explain as a teacher. It is funny and heart-breaking all at the same time!
In February we will read the book, "The Watson's Go to Birmingham". It is a fiction story about a family coming together during a violent summer in 1963.
