Bayou Magic: Or, Hope, Fireflies, & Mermaids
Jewell Parker Rhodes manages to write a beautiful heartwarming story that brings about the importance of family, history, and our environment. Maddy is afraid to go visit her grandmére who lives in the deep bayou of Bon Temps. But when she gets there, her life starts to change. She learns to trust herself as she becomes one with the nature around her and one with her ancestral past. There's some magical realism, fireflies, swamp-boating riding, and maybe a mermaid or two. Also, stop oil drilling pleeeease.
