" 'hold yo' head up and act like you b'long to somebody."
I love the family ties that are presented in this book. The respect that Tricia has from her grandmother is beautiful.
pickThe dialect and dialogue in this book is extremely special and important for children to read. I love how true it is to how things were said in the south. This book is not an easy concept as it talks about the persecution of minorities, however, the main character Tricia Ann puts a positive spin on her adventures. Truly a must read.
RATING 5/5
HISTORICAL FICTION
Does progress mean that when the Dodgers come home, Jackie will be able to stay in the same hotels as the other Dodgers, like Pee Wee, Gil, Carl, and Ralph Branca?
Afraid not, Steve, Dad replied. #jimcrowlaws
