Finding Langston by Lesa Cline-Ransome

5.0

This is my new comfort book. Langston travels through grief, and shame, as he gets used to his new home with his daddy. He finds a library, and discovers the words of his namesake, Langston Hughes, and the world opens up to him in new, raw ways. He battles with a bully, and the fear that his daddy won’t like him reading so much, but these words do more for him than he could imagine. Short, bittersweet, and absolutely heartwarming. Definitely a book for new readers, readers who haven’t found their book, or anyone looking to read something that’s like drinking a warm cup of tea on a cold winter’s night.
