   Summary: Roll of Thunder, Hear my Cry
This is one of the "must reads" for all ages. It reminds of how far we have come and where we must never go again. It also is an opportunity to look into the past and see what it takes to create a strong family. That it takes work, sacrifice, loyalty and moral strength. I was moved on many levels by this book and highly recommend it to adults and young people.

   Summary: Okay
This book is an attempt to be profound and deep, but it misses the mark just so slightly. You don't come away deep in thought and reflection that is probably intended. It is an average read.

   Summary: My new favorite book--great for kids AND adults
I'm sad to say that I just now read this book for the first time (at age 30). I ordered it for my 5th-grade classroom and, of course, wanted to preview it first. I ended up reading it all in one night. I literally could not put it down.

It was a hard book to read, due to its unflinchingly honest nature. Although the official suggested target audience for this book is 9-12, I often found myself wondering if my students could handle this almost brutal look at racism in the 1930s. Heck, MY stomach turned at certain points. Still, I suppose that my students NEED to know what life was like for blacks in the 1930s--and the fact that the story is told from the point of view of a little girl about their age will make for an even stronger impact, I think.

I do give a heads-up to parents and teachers due to the repeated use of the "n" word; however, this book captivated me from start to finish and truly took my breath away. I think it's a story that every child and adult NEEDS to read.

   Summary: This was an excellent book
I liked this book very much, because it had a good plot, explained a lot about blacks after the Civil War, and was very interesting. It was touching, and was hard to put down. I would recommend this book to anybody over 11.
