"Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry" by Mildred D. Taylor is an amazing read that captures the struggles of the Logan family during the Great Depression. Cassie Logan, the main character, is such an inspiring girl! I love how she stands up to Lillian Jean and doesn’t let anyone bully her. Plus, the way she and her brothers prank the school bus is so clever and shows how they stick together against unfairness. Taylor’s storytelling really pulls you in, and the themes of family and fighting for what’s right make this book a must-read!
