Brown Girl Dreaming by Jacqueline Woodson

4.0

I really enjoyed the prose of Brown Girl Dreaming. Woodson's idea of writing it is free-flowing poetry lends the story this really beautiful, dreamy quality. Woodson manages to give so much detail, describe so much in so few words. I really felt like I got to know not only her but also her family.

I really recommend this to anyone who likes prose poetry, history, and family narratives.
