Brown Girl Dreaming by Jacqueline Woodson

5.0

All of Jacqueline Woodson's books are lovely, but there's something especially poignant about this one-- her recollections of growing up in the 1960s and 1970s, a child of both South Carolina and New York City. She is a master of novels (and now memoir) in verse, and this book will appeal to a wide age range, from middle grade through high school.
